Rock 'n' Roll San Jose

Rock 'n' Roll San Jose, held in San Jose, California, takes place October 4–5, 2025. The weekend offers Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K distances, plus KiDS ROCK, on a fast, PR-friendly course through downtown. The race is famed for its party atmosphere—live bands, DJs, and cheer squads energize runners as fans fill the streets from start to finish.

Now in its 20th year, the event celebrates Speed City, USA, with elite support and a San Jose spirit-packed course that keeps runners moving and the crowds roaring. The festival vibe extends to an expo and remix challenges that invite participation beyond the run. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
