St. Patrick’s Day Dash

Sunday, March 15 @ 8:30 a.m.–12 p.m.

Join us for this Seattle tradition, 42 years running! The St. Patrick’s Day Dash, taking place Sunday, March 15, will once again call Seattle Center home.

Starting at 9:00am, 5K participants will take off from Seattle Center and complete an out and back jaunt along Aurora Ave before returning to the finish line at Seattle Center.

After your Dash, you’ll be greeted by the St. Pats Post Dash Bash, presented by Guinness. Inside Fisher Pavillion, for all those 21 and over, we’ll have live music, traditional Irish Dancers, food and of course Guinness to celebrate your St. Patrick’s Day. From 9:00am – 12:00pm the Post Dash Bash will also include giveaways, costume contests and free family fun with the Irish Heritage Club Festival (happening inside the Seattle Center Armory)

The St. Patrick’s Day Dash is one of the Northwest’s BEST running parties and largest St. Patrick’s Day celebrations in Seattle.

Get yourself registered and come celebrate the Irish in all of us at the St. Patrick’s Day Dash, taking place March 15, 2026 at Seattle Center.
