The Clearwater Beach Sugar Sand Festival 5K for CFY presented by Single Source will take place on Saturday, April 11, 2026, at 9 a.m.

This run walk kicks off the final weekend of the globally acclaimed and internationally celebrated, Pier 60 Sugar Sand Festival on Clearwater Beach, Florida.

The course will take place on the hard packed sand of Clearwater Beach along the shoreline, but running shoes are recommended. The run course mimics asphalt much more so than the beautiful sugar sand you will see with your free tickets to the festival in one of the greatest Sugar Sand Festival displays of art and sand on the planet.

Registration is limited to 300 in this 5K run/walk open to all ages and levels of ability.

The Pier 60 Sugar Sand Festival presented by Visit St.Pete-Clearwaters returns March 27 - April 12, 2026. For 17 days, Clearwater Beach takes center as Master sand sculptors from around the world will bring the beach to life in this internationally celebrated event that draws visitors from near and far. The 2026 theme, “United in Sand: Celebrating Sports & Spirit!”, is a dynamic showcase of teamwork, triumph, and tradition paired with live entertainment, fireworks, and unforgettable sunsets at Pier 60. This makes 2026 the perfect year to kick off the all-inclusive and participatory Sugar Sand Inaugural 5k Run, Walk, and Kid’s Single Source Sand Dash, welcoming participants of all ages and levels of ability.

On Saturday, April 11th, The 5K Run/Walk and Kid’s Sand Dash will take place on the hard-packed sand along the shoreline, offering a race setting that is truly unique to Clearwater Beach, Florida. With the gulf as your backdrop, participants are encouraged to bring their cameras along. The Run/Walk begins at 9 a.m. at Pier 60 and follows a scenic north out-and-back course. Participants will receive an exclusive finisher medal only available at this event.

Throughout the 17 days of Sugar Sand Festival, we’ll have some of the best live music on the main stage, performers around the venue, and fireworks at Sunsets at Pier 60. The names still being announced to perform will draw people from all over the state, as we benefit the children and sports programs through CFY Pinellas.

Registration is available ONLY on RunSignUp Included in your 5K registration is the 5 inch finisher’s medal featuring the “United In Sand” sports themed logo, your event t-shirt, one free ticket into the 24,000 square foot sand sculpture exhibit, and a goody bag stuffed by CFY Pinellas who use every dollar they raise in sponsorship dollars for the youth of Pinellas County through its 3 Pillars of Giving, Athletics, Education and Water Safety.

The Heritage All Day 5k was dreamed up in 2021 with a route encircling our church, local school, and dozens of our neighbors. The format is designed to represent the power of prayer and how praying circles around our community can make meaningful change. Since it’s inception, we have collectively circled our community 864 times and raised over $44,000 towards our mission! We hope you can join us in 2026 for a fun day or running, walking and raising funds to circle and support our community.

Our 5th annual event will be in the Spring of 2026 and will have 4 waves of races (7am, 8am, 9am, 10am) each with 2 loops effectively circling our community over and over all morning long –hence the name, All Day 5k. Race day culminates with a kids fun run at 11am with laps in the parking lot, music, popsicles and a bounce house.

In addition to the 5k and running events on Saturday, we have a pre-race dinner the night before (separate meal tickets sold at our event website) which is hosted at Heritage and is catered by locally owned Three Brothers Pizza. They provide a delicious pasta dinner meal and all the funds raised by the dinner and the raffle items go directly to supporting the foster care ministries of Heritage. During the meal, guests are treated to a presentation with a few guest speakers to educate on the importance of foster care, the great need for foster care services in our Tampa Bay community, and how they can partner and get involved with the foster care ministries to make an impact!

Thanks for joining us a fun and impactful weekend in April
