Women's Race Las Palmas 2025

Get those running shoes ready! 🏃 

This 23 March, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria will host the Carrera de la Mujer, a sporting and solidarity event that inaugurates the national circuit. 

This annual event is designed to promote female participation in sport and raise awareness of the importance of women's health and wellbeing.

This is an excellent opportunity to take part in a healthy activity and support charitable causes, or simply enjoy the festive atmosphere while watching the passing of the ‘Pink Tide’!

Characteristics of the event:

    - Route: The race usually has a route of approximately 5 kilometres, adapted so that women of all ages and physical conditions can participate, either running or walking. It will start at the Plaza de Canarias, next to the Port of Las Palmas, and will finish at the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium, in Las Canteras Beach.
    - Participation: Although it is mainly focused on women, in some editions men are allowed to participate in special categories or as companions, thus encouraging inclusion and support for the cause.
    - Solidarity Causes: Part of the funds raised through registrations go to local organisations working in the fight against breast cancer and other initiatives related to women's health.

Ambience and Activities:
Race day becomes a real party in the city. In addition to the competition, parallel activities such as aerobics classes, zumba, health workshops, information stands and musical performances are organised, creating a playful and educational atmosphere for all attendees.
 

Tourist Importance:
For tourists visiting Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, the Women's Run represents a unique opportunity to integrate into local life and take part in an activity that combines sport, solidarity and culture. Moreover, as it coincides with the dates close to Carnival, visitors can enjoy a wide range of events and celebrations in the city.

In previous years, the Women's Race has had a high level of participation, consolidating its position as one of the most important sporting events on the local calendar. The involvement of public and private institutions has been fundamental to its success, guaranteeing an efficient and safe organisation for all participants.

Recommendations for Visitors:
