Vienna Halloween Run 2025
On Thursday, Oct 30, 2025, the Prater Hauptallee will be transformed into the city's spookiest running area when the Vienna Halloween Run brings together running enthusiasts, families, and horror fans. At the Halloween Run, you'll share the starting line with zombies, werewolves, and other eerie creatures. You can choose from three different races to take part in:
★ Mini Monster Run – 800 meters for kids ages 4-9 🏃♀️
★ Little Fear Run – 2.5 kilometers for recreational runners 🏃♀️🏃♀️
★ Big Scare Run – 5 kilometers for multi-mile runners 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
The spooky atmosphere will be fueled not only by the participants in their creative costumes but also by the hauntingly decorated course full of goosebump-inducing moments. At the finish line, every runner will receive a well-filled goodie bag and a finisher medal. The running event will be accompanied by a varied side program featuring face painting for kids, pumpkin carving, and a photo booth.
The three runs will take place one after the other, each preceded by a warm-up session. After the final awards ceremony, you can celebrate with the other participants at the After-Run Party until 22:00.
Best Costume Award
Costumes are, of course, not mandatory — unless you want to win the Style Award! The scariest and most original costume will be chosen in each category. So throw on your vampire cape, break out the fake blood, stick a rubber axe to your head, and give your fellow runners a fright they’ll never forget!
