Whiskey Run Atlanta

About the Event

The Whiskey Run Atlanta returns to the city on September 6th, 2026, in a new location along the Beltline, promising a less crowded experience than before. The race venue is set at Grant Park, with runners starting near the historic Cyclorama building and finishing just steps away from the Atlanta Botanical Garden. This event offers something for everyone—half-marathon, 10K, or 5K—and includes post-race festivities that ensure a lively atmosphere.

Race morning finds participants gathering under the clear skies typical of late September in Atlanta. The temperature ranges between 18 and 28 degrees Celsius with a comfortable feel due to low humidity. Expect breezy conditions with an average wind speed around 9.7 km/h, which can make for a brisk but manageable run.
The Whiskey Run Atlanta has been running since its inception, partnering with El Tesoro at Lee+White in recent years and becoming a beloved community event. Over the past four years, it has seen thousands of participants who come to support local charities and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere that makes this race unique. Every finisher receives an Event Premium Blend shirt or can upgrade to a hoodie, along with electronic timing, scoring, a finishing medal, whiskey sampling, coffee, dessert pairings, gear options, and free parking.
The course venue is designed for all levels of runners. The half-marathon follows the hard and dry surface of the Beltline through Grant Park, offering scenic views and challenging terrain. The 10K route also starts from near the Cyclorama building but takes a different path within the park, while the 5K offers a shorter yet equally rewarding journey back to the finish line.
At the start, runners will find themselves on a hard surface with slight elevation changes that provide a mix of flat and gentle inclines. There are no aid stations along this route as it is meant for those who prefer to run without stops. The race concludes at Grant Park’s main entrance, where participants can enjoy post-race festivities.

About Atlanta

Scenic view of

Atlanta is the vanguard of the New South, with the charm and elegance of the Old. It's a city that balances southern traditions with sleek modernism, and southern hospitality with three skylines and the world’s busiest airport. It's a city that has been burnt to the ground and built back up; seen the horrors of war; felt the pain of droughts and floods; and given birth to Martin Luther King, Jr., the greatest figure of the civil rights movement. Atlanta is the capital of the state of Georgia.
