42nd Annual Brantford Rotary Classic Run 2026
The 42nd Annual Brantford Rotary Classic Run takes place Sunday, June 7, 2026, in Brantford, Ontario. Organized by the Rotary Club of Brantford, this edition continues a four-decade-plus tradition — the Classic Run has been part of the local calendar for 42 years and draws runners from Brantford and neighbouring Brant County communities.
Race day is a single-day event centred at W. Ross Macdonald School in Brantford. Start and finish operations occur at the school grounds, and participants complete their races and return to the same finish area. The event uses an online registration system for entries and donations.
What sets the Brantford Rotary Classic Run apart is its community roots. All participants receive a souvenir medal and a light post-race snack, and the event benefits from local sponsor support and an active Rotary volunteer base. There are dedicated donation and team-fundraising options connected to the event, so runners can support causes and clubs while they compete.
Registration for the 2026 Classic Run is handled through the event’s online signup portal; prospective entrants can register and view fundraising options via the organizer’s registration page.
