The Night Runners WPB Pride 5K Run/Walk invites you to a vibrant celebration of LGBTQ+ pride, community, and fitness on Saturday, June 27, 2026, in scenic West Palm Beach, Florida. This 6th annual event offers a welcoming 5K (3.1 miles) experience for runners, joggers, and walkers of all ages and abilities, promising an evening of family fun and unity. The festivities kick off at 6:30 PM, but arrive early to enjoy the free Pride Showcase from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM, featuring local business vendors and delicious food trucks, adding a lively expo atmosphere to your race day.

The course itself is a highlight, taking participants along the beautiful South Flagler Drive waterfront, offering picturesque views as you stride. While specific elevation details aren't provided, waterfront routes in this area are typically flat, making for an enjoyable and accessible experience. Hydration is key in the Florida heat, and you'll find a water station conveniently located on the course, with additional water available at the finish line. Typical race day conditions in late June include highs around 90°F and lows around 77°F, with a 25% chance of precipitation, so prepare for a warm, potentially humid, but spirited run. The event is chip-timed, ensuring accurate results for every participant.

Beyond the personal achievement, every step in the Night Runners WPB Pride 5K contributes to a greater cause. A portion of the proceeds supports PRISM FL Inc., a non-profit dedicated to providing LGBTQ+ resources, youth activism, and STI clinic research within Palm Beach County. All registered participants will receive a limited edition race shirt and a unique finisher medal to commemorate their accomplishment and participation in this inclusive event. Even if you can't join in person, a virtual Pride 5K option allows you to be part of the celebration from anywhere.
