The Santa Shuffle began 34 years ago in Edmonton, Alberta, as a fundraiser for local Salvation Army initiatives. It has since expanded into a national event with locations across Canada. The event includes a 5km Fun Run and a 1km Elf Walk, welcoming participants of all ages and skill levels. Funds raised support The Salvation Army's community programs.

This family-friendly event encourages festive attire and offers accessible courses suitable for all ages and abilities, making it a joyful winter tradition in Winnipeg.
