Countdown to event
The 2027 Zilker Relays will take place on Friday, September 10, 2027, at Zilker Park!
Don't Miss Out on Austin's Ultimate Relay Race Event!
Celebrate with Tacodeli, local beer, and live music!
The Zilker Relays is a 10-mile race with teams comprised of 4 runners. Each participant runs a 2.5 mile loop from one central festival/transition area. The team concept of the Zilker Relays is not unique, but the combination of a relay, festival home base, drinks, and music, make this experience a favorite for runners of all calibers and ages.
You don’t have to train like a marathoner for this one. All you have to do is be willing to run/jog/walk/stroll 2.5 miles, enjoy live music, and great food and get 3 of your siblings/kids/buddies/colleagues to come join you for this one of a kind running experience.
