About the 2026 Belleville Gingerbread 5K Run/Walk
The course runs through downtown Belleville, so you get storefronts and street-level holiday decorations rather than a park trail. It is a road race with the start and finish both anchored at the same spot on West Main Street, which keeps the logistics simple and the atmosphere concentrated in one place.
Packet pickup runs across several days at the Parks Department on West Main Street, with the final option on race morning. The post-race area has live music, bounce houses, and a coffee and hot cocoa truck parked at the finish.
