Hues for Humanity Medicine Hat 2026

The Hues for Humanity Medicine Hat is a vibrant, family-oriented color run organized to support Real Humanitarian's global initiatives. Scheduled for Saturday, May 23, 2026, the event takes place along the Sierra Coulee walking trails, starting at the Medicine Hat Tourism Centre. This non-competitive 5km walk or run is designed to bring the community together through music, exercise, and multiple color stations where participants are showered with colorful powder, all while raising funds for education and health programs in developing nations.
