2016 Toronto Carnival Run

Run to the Beat of the Drum!

The inaugural Toronto Carnival Run takes place on Saturday July 23, 2016 in Toronto Inukshuk Park (Coronation Park) along the Martin Goodman Trail located near Lake Shore Blvd West and Newfoundland Rd.

The event takes place 1 week prior to the world renowned Toronto Caribbean Carnival (a.k.a Caribana™) which will take place along Lake Shore Blvd West along the same route.

This family fun run is to encourage wellness and community involvement with a Caribbean carnival theme. This race offers a 5K run or walk option and 1K children’s run. Awards will be given to the top 3 male and female finishers.
