From the Organizer
The Tour de Tinsel 5K is a festive, nighttime road race that winds through the charming, historic streets of downtown LaGrange, Georgia. This race is packed with high-energy cheering groups, glowing holiday lights, and an electric atmosphere that will keep your feet moving!
You’ll dash (or stroll!) right past the town's spectacular Tinsel Trail—a dazzling display of beautifully decorated, twinkling Christmas trees. The fun doesn't stop at the finish line, either; your registration gets you into the ultimate Sweetland Amphitheatre After-Party, featuring a live DJ, festive holiday treats, and discounted ice skating at Sweetland on Ice.
Best of all, 100% of the race proceeds directly benefit Circles of Troup County, helping local families thrive. Grab your favorite holiday socks, recruit your squad, and sign up today to experience the most magical 3.1 miles of the year!
