The Stadtlauf St. Gallen is the flagship running event of Eastern Switzerland's city of St. Gallen, held every September in the historic old town. The 10 km Speed Run and Fun Run cover four 2.5 km loops through the Roter Platz, Gallusplatz, Klosterhof, and Bärenplatz, starting and finishing at the Vadian Denkmal near Marktplatz/Bohl. The event also offers a 5 km Short Run, a 2.5 km Einsteigerlauf for beginners, combined 15 km and 25 km multi-race packages, Nordic Walking, and free Kids Run and Family Run categories for children. The 2026 edition drew a record 2,700+ runners and introduced the Muted Run, a 5 km headphone run led by DJs on bicycles, while raising CHF 5,000 for NetzwerkSport through the Migros-backed 'Laufend Gutes tun' charity program. The next edition is set for September 12, 2027.
