2026 Dana Point Turkey Trot

2026 Dana Point Turkey Trot


Join us for the 49th Annual Dana Point Turkey Trot this Thanksgiving Day in the Dana Point Harbor! 

Produced by the Dana Point Chamber of Commerce, the Dana Point Turkey Trot is one of the nation's largest turkey trots and has become an Orange County tradition, attracting 12,000 participants to its 5K, 10K, Combo 10K/5K, Kids' 1-Mile Gobble Wobble, and two-day expo.

Register for the Race


Celebrating 49 years, the Dana Point Turkey Trot is the premier trot in Southern California and is the perfect place to bring your family to run the race before you stuff your face. The Dana Point Turkey Trot is a USA Track & Field (USATF) sanctioned and certified event.

Since its inception, the Dana Point Turkey Trot has donated over half a million dollars to nonprofit organizations. A portion of each registration will benefit our 2026 Charity Partners: Boys & Girls Clubs of Capistrano Valley and RH Dana Elementary School.
