Frome Running Festival 2026

Come and join us at the Frome Running Festival In Support of Dorothy House

on Sunday 16th August 2026

Voted one of the best events in the UK by runners in the independent Racecheck Awards in 2019 – there’s nowhere quite like Frome for an unforgettable run.

Welcoming first-time runners, experienced athletes, and everyone in between, you’ll find people of all paces to keep you feeling strong as you take in the sights of the fabulous routes through rural, residential and town centre streets.

The final glorious mile sweeps through the town centre heart of Frome with a huge downhill curve that will set your hairs on end, with goosebumps carrying you through to the finish line.
