Race Description
The 13th running of the Festivus 5K for Autism is set to take place on December 15, 2024, in historic downtown Salem, Massachusetts. The event is expected to attract around 500 runners as it continues its tradition of supporting children with autism.
Since its inception, the Festivus 5K has raised over $240,000 to aid in the acquisition of technologies and educational resources for children with autism at the Northshore Education Consortium. Participants will enjoy a flat and fast course, starting and finishing on Derby Street, with various awards and a post-race celebration.
