The 32nd annual Alzheimer Calgary Walk & Run is back on October 12, 2025 for the ultimate active date idea supporting our local community and a great cause, raising money and awareness for those affected by Alzheimer’s and dementia.

Racers can close out race season by running a 5km or 10km “fun run,” but if running is not quite your thing participants can still make a difference by walking 1km or 5km in support of the cause.

The event is packed with tons of family-friendly activities, too, like a free photo booth (hello, main character energy!), YYC-favourite food trucks, live music from The Frontiers, a postcard making station, and even more for the cutest date idea all for a good cause!

If you don’t want to participate in running nor walking, but still want to support this cause, you can still get involved by becoming a volunteer for the event – BONUS: you could even make volunteering a weekly or monthly date night!
