There’s no better way to get into the holiday spirit than joining hundreds of Santas in a race through Breckenridge.

Join us as hundreds of holiday enthusiasts of all ages, dressed in festive costumes, race down historic Main Street, Breckenridge. We encourage those who can withstand the thin mountain air to start at the front of the pack, as the top finishers will be awarded Ullr helmets and prize packages. Not a runner? Walk, jog or skip through the 6-block course. Children dressed in holiday costumes are welcome to join their parents in the Santa Race. So come out and show your support, all proceeds benefit the Breckenridge Boy Scout Troop 187.

5:00pm — Lighting of Breckenridge

Santa makes an early visit to Breckenridge to light the Town Tree. Don’t miss the moment when Breckenridge turns on the lights and turns up the holiday spirit as Santa flips the switch in the Blue River Plaza just outside the Breckenridge Welcome Center at 203 S Main Street.

5:00pm — Phil Kline's "Unsilent Night"

Immediately following the lighting, visitors can join in Phil Kline’s “Unsilent Night”procession of Christmas music through the town leading to the Santa. (Local’s Tip: visit the Handmade Market earlier in the day to build your speakers or get a boombox for the procession!)
