On 1st December, Devonshire Square launches its Santa Run, bringing a festive twist to its Wellness & Fitness programme and inviting its community, visitors and members of the public to come together for an evening of outdoor activity, seasonal celebrations and socialising in the heart of the City.
Organised by DSQ’s Community and Events Management in partnership with 24N Fitness, the event combines an energising outdoor workout with festive fun and a relaxed post-run gathering, offering a great opportunity to get active, discover new experiences and celebrate the season.
Taking place from 5.30pm to 8pm, the event is open to everyone, welcoming both experienced runners and those simply looking for a sociable way to stay active during the festive season.
A Festive Run Through the City
The evening begins in Devonshire Square’s Western Courtyard, where certified 24N Fitness coaches Sasha and Annie will welcome participants and lead a short warm-up session before setting off on a scenic four-mile route through the City of London.
Offering a refreshing change of scenery from the usual running routine, the route provides an opportunity to enjoy some fresh air, explore the surrounding streets and experience the City from a different perspective.
Adding a festive twist to the occasion, all participants are required to wear a Santa hat, bringing a touch of Christmas spirit to the streets of London. Those looking to embrace the theme further are also welcome to wear a full Santa costume.
The Santa Run forms part of Devonshire Square’s ongoing Wellness & Fitness programme, which brings opportunities to stay active, discover new experiences and connect with the local community to the heart of the City.
Post-Run Refreshments and Festive Celebrations
Following the run, participants are invited to return to Devonshire Square’s Western Courtyard to unwind and enjoy complimentary drinks and nibbles provided by Devonshire Terrace.
The post-run gathering will also feature a delicious selection of festive savoury and sweet treats, offering the perfect opportunity to refuel, catch up with fellow participants and enjoy some well-deserved seasonal indulgence.
Combining fitness, wellbeing and social connection, the event offers a great opportunity to enjoy an active evening in a relaxed and festive setting.
Open to All, Connecting Through Shared Experiences
