    The prices for springtime surprise events

    Hiya Karen!

    Thanks for stopping by planDisney with your Springtime Surprise question! It sounds like you’ve got your eye on one of the most Incredible weekends of the year—literally! As someone who laced up and took on the Springtime Surprise Challenge myself for the first time this year, I can tell you... It was nothing short of super. From the 5K to the 10K and all the way through the 10-Miler, it was such an amazing event. 

    Now, let’s leap into your question. While we’re still waiting for official word on the individual race themes and pricing, I recommend keeping your eyes on the runDisney website and the Disney Parks Blog for the big reveal. In the meantime, to get a general idea of costs, it’s super helpful to look at past events like the 2026 Marathon Weekend or the 2025 Wine & Dine. While prices can vary, they’ll give you a good ballpark for planning your budget—just remember, they won’t be identical.

    What we do know is that Springtime Surprise Weekend is scheduled for April 16–20, 2026, and registration will open to the general public on July 29, 2025 (with early registration for Club runDisney members on July 22). So mark those calendars—Edna Mode would be so proud of your planning!

    Karen, this event is one of my absolute favorites. It’s filled with fun themes, surprise twists, and the kind of Disney magic that makes every mile memorable. Whether you're racing for a personal best or just out to enjoy the atmosphere (and maybe grab a selfie with a character or two), you’re in for a heroic time.

    I hope this helps get your planning off to a fantastic start! If you have any more questions as you train, don’t hesitate to swing by.

    See ya real soon, 

    Christina
