Run Fest at Panorama Farms

Join us for Run Fest at Panorama Farms, a one-of-a-kind running festival combining trail racing, team relays, local brews, live music, and community celebration at the iconic Panorama Farms.

Designed for runners of all levels, Run Fest offers multiple ways to participate: a scenic 4-mile trail race, a fast and fun 4×1-mile relay, and the 1-mile Fun One, a low-pressure option for runners, walkers, dogs, and children. Participants can choose one event - or tackle all three - for a full day of movement and celebration.

Following the races, the finish line turns into a festival atmosphere featuring live music, food trucks, and local beverages, including beer from Random Row Brewing Co.. Friends, families, and spectators are encouraged to cheer runners on and enjoy the festivities.

Run Fest takes place at Panorama Farms, a nationally recognized cross-country venue that is typically closed to the public, making the event a rare opportunity to experience the trails and rolling hills firsthand.

Proceeds on-site at Run Fest and our Pre-Race Party benefit the UVA Innovation Hub at Charlottesville Middle School, supporting computationally rich, project-based learning experiences for students and teachers throughout Charlottesville City Schools.

Registration is now open, with special pricing available for early registrants.
