Norton Sports Health Lights RUNder Louisville

Start your New Year with a one-of-a-kind underground adventure!

Join us for the inaugural Norton Sports Health Lights RUNder Louisville on Friday, Jan. 1, 2027, at 9 a.m. at the Mega Cavern, 1841 Taylor Ave.

This family-friendly 2.027-mile run/walk gives you a chance to experience Louisville's beloved Lights Under Louisville holiday tradition in a whole new way – on foot!

Start your New Year on the right foot. Underground.

For the first time ever, a race will take participants directly through the spectacular Lights Under Louisville holiday light display. Journey through the Mega Cavern's underground wonderland, illuminated by more than 7 million points of light. Along the way, enjoy larger-than-life themed displays, favorite holiday characters, festive music, lasers and plenty of magical moments.

Whether you're running, walking or simply soaking in the sights, this unforgettable experience is a fun way for the whole family to kick off 2027. Leave the winter weather above ground and make your first miles of the New Year truly memorable!

All participants will receive a commemorative Norton Sports Health Lights RUNder Louisville long-sleeve race shirt and a custom finisher's medal.

NOTE: The course follows a gravel path and is not paved. Participants should plan accordingly.
