Los Muertos 5K

This 5K route begins at the Historic Olvera Street monument, taking participants on an out-and-back course through lower Chinatown and Los Angeles State Historic Park. The path crosses the Los Angeles River before looping back for a post-race celebration. Most participants arrive wearing elaborate costumes or traditional Día de los Muertos face paint, which is available on-site before the start. The experience concludes with a ceremony featuring live music and awards, with all finishers receiving medals and T-shirts.
