Liberty Hill Jingle Bell 5K

Join the festive spirit of the third annual Liberty Hill Jingle Bell 5k on December 12, 2026. This family-friendly race starts at Santa Rita Middle School, offering runners an out-and-back course along flat terrain on Santa Rita Blvd. For younger participants and their families, a one-kilometer fun run around the school campus provides a less strenuous but equally enjoyable experience.
Race day kicks off with packet pickup from 6:45 AM to 7:45 AM at Santa Rita Middle School or early pick-up options available on December 10th and 11th. The one-kilometer fun run begins promptly at 8:00 AM, followed by the 5k race start at 8:30 AM.
Participants will receive a long-sleeve dry fit shirt if they register before November 19th, along with swag bags filled with event goodies. Awards for overall male and female winners as well as age group medals are presented starting at 9:45 AM in the vibrant atmosphere of Santa Rita Middle School.
After crossing the finish line, stay to enjoy post-race activities including the Liberty Hill Christmas Festival downtown and a festive parade that evening. The race is open to all ages four and up; children six years old and younger must be supervised by an adult throughout the event. For safety reasons, pets are not allowed on course except for certified service animals.
Registration fees vary based on age group and early registration dates: adults pay $30 for 5k entry or $25 if registered before November 19th; students under 18 can register at a reduced rate of $25. The one-kilometer fun run costs $25 for adults and $20 for students, with prices increasing after the early registration deadline.
Participants are encouraged to support their local schools by choosing a campus team during registration, directing $5 from each entry fee towards that school's PTO or activity fund.
