Event overview

The Palisades Will Rogers 5K Run is scheduled for Saturday, July 4, 2026. The event is organized by the Palisades Will Rogers 5&10K Run Foundation with Providence Saint John’s Health Center as presenting sponsor. For 47 years the race and Kids’ Fun Run have been part of the Pacific Palisades 4th of July celebration. This year the traditional location is unfeasible after a nearby fire, so the 5K Run and Kids’ Fun Run will be held at Venice Beach.
