TCS New York City Marathon Kids Kickoff - Brooklyn Bridge Park
New York Road Runners will host a free youth running festival at Brooklyn Bridge Park on October 24, 2026, to celebrate marathon week.
The TCS New York City Marathon Kids Kickoff returns to Brooklyn Bridge Park on Saturday, October 24, 2026. This free event is open to participants ages 2 to 18 of all abilities, offering non-competitive runs designed to inspire active lifestyles. The program features two distinct categories: Stage 1 offers short dashes for children ages 2 to 11, while Stage 2 provides a half-mile run for participants ages 8 to 18.
The festival begins at 8:00 a.m. and includes various fitness activities alongside the scheduled races. All finishers will receive a medal and a New Balance T-shirt while supplies last. Registration is currently open, though organizers note that spots fill quickly for this borough-wide celebration of the city's premier marathon.
