Stirling Distillery's Santa Dash 2025

Come and join us for Stirling Distillery’s inaugural Santa Dash – a fun, festive, 1-mile “not flat” loop starting at the distillery, running past the iconic Stirling Castle, and finishing on a gentle incline back at the distillery, where participants can enjoy a glass of festive winter punch and a mocktail for under 18s.

The event takes place on Saturday 6th December at 3:00pm and costs just £5 to enter (plus booking fee). All profits will go to Strathcarron Hospice.

The race starts at the distillery on Lower Castlehill, heads up an incline to Upper Castlehill beneath Stirling Castle, then you'll enjoy a lovely downhill route along Broad Street to Upper Bridge Street before facing the historic Crofthead Road back up to the distillery.

All we ask is that you dress festively – the more Santa's, the merrier – to make this a pre-Christmas spectacular! Entries will be limited to 200 runners and the dash is open to all aged 5 and over. Please note: children aged 5 to 11 must be accompanied by an adult.

There will be a first-place male and first-place female prize, each receiving a bottle of Stirling Gin.

Santa hats are available to purchase when you enter or at the distillery.

Street parking is available around the distillery and is a short walk from Stirling train station.
