About the Event

Light up a dark winter night in the heart of the Norwegian capital at the **Winterrun Oslo on Saturday, January 31, 2026**. This festive running event makes its highly anticipated return to the iconic Rådhusplassen (City Hall Square), offering a choice of a 5 km run starting at 5:30 PM or a 10 km (two laps) at 7:00 PM. The course takes you on a fantastic tour past Akershus Fortress, through the historic Kvadraturen district, and along the scenic waterfront, all illuminated by fire performers, torches, and music to create a magical atmosphere.

Embrace the "feelgood" spirit by dressing up in your most luminous costume for a chance to win great prizes, and know that every finisher will receive a stylish medal and a refreshing Vitamin Well drink at the finish line. With an official After Run party at the nearby Kullt venue and a vibrant, inclusive vibe, Winterrun is the perfect way to shake off the winter blues, test your fitness, and celebrate with hundreds of fellow runners in a truly spectacular urban setting.

About Oslo

Learn more about the host city, Oslo.

Oslo is Norway's capital and largest city, with 700,000 citizens in the city proper and about 1.5 million inhabitants in greater Oslo. It is in the East of the country in the Oslofjorden fjord, extending over an inlet of the Skagerrak strait. It is spaciously laid out and surrounded by green hills and mountains and includes 40 islands and 343 lakes. Oslo offers ski slopes for alpine skiing and ski trails for cross-country skiing in the winter. In the summer, the temperature in Oslo may make it comfortable to swim. There are several well-visited beach resorts. Oslo is one of the world's northernmost capitals and so gets only 6 hours of sunlight in the winter. In high summer, sunlight hours soar to 18, making its climate markedly different between seasons, with cold yet relatively dry winters.
