Race Information
Kick off the Sugar Rush Arts Festival with a burst of color, energy, and fun at the Sugar Rush Color Run 5K!
Start your Saturday morning by racing along the beautiful Sugar Hill Greenway, where vibrant color stations, cheering volunteers, and an exciting festival atmosphere make every mile unforgettable. Whether you're chasing a personal best or simply enjoying a colorful morning with family and friends, this event is the perfect way to launch one of Sugar Hill's signature weekends.
When you cross the finish line you'll receive your custom finisher medal! Be sure to show it off as you walk through the open-air gallery of the Sugar Rush Arts Festival. West Broad Street comes alive with talented juried artists, unique handmade creations, live music, dance performances, delicious food vendors, and the kind of small-town charm that makes this festival a favorite year after year.
The race starts at 9:00 AM and awards will be presented to the top male and female finishers in standard 5-year age groups, giving runners of all ages a chance to earn recognition.
Come dressed in white, leave covered in color, and make your Saturday morning the brightest part of the Sugar Rush Arts Festival!
