Viking Fest Road Race

The annual Viking Fest Road Race is returning to downtown Poulsbo — and this year, it’s about more than just crossing the finish line! 
Hosted by Poulsbo Parks and Recreation, the Viking Fest Road Race serves as a community fundraiser supporting more than 1,200 local programs offered each year. Proceeds from the race directly fund free senior fitness classes, adaptive trikes for inclusive recreation, youth sports, arts and culture programming, community events like our Summer Concert Series and Spooktacular, and improvements to Poulsbo’s parks and trails. 

This race is a celebration of community! Every registration is an investment in programs that keep Poulsbo active, inclusive, and connected. 

Participants can choose from multiple race options including a 5-Mile or 1-Mile Run along Poulsbo’s scenic waterfront. For those unable to attend in person, a Virtual Viking Fest Road Race 5K (VVFRR 5K) option allows supporters to complete their miles anytime, anywhere — walking, running, biking, or swimming — while still contributing to the cause. 

Every registration dollar stays local, strengthening recreational access for people of all ages and abilities. 

The Viking Fest Road Race continues to be a beloved tradition during Viking Fest weekend, bringing families, athletes, and neighbors together in celebration of health, heritage, and community pride.
