The race starts and finishes at Dallas City Hall Plaza on Marilla Street, offering scenic 5K and 8-mile courses through the downtown skyline, Deep Ellum, and the historic Bishop Arts vicinity. A special non-competitive 'Tot Trot' allows toddlers and young children under 6 to dash around the plaza. The wide, paved streets are completely stroller-friendly, with family zones, live music, costume contests, and photos with the giant inflatable turkey. ## Similar picks in Dallas–Fort Worth - [Dallas YMCA Turkey Trot 2026 — with Youth, Tot and Diaper Dash Entries](https://grassyknees.com/dallas-fort-worth/activities/dallas-ymca-turkey-trot-2026-with-youth-tot-and-diaper-dash-entries--listing-bd4f0a30f5734c573b7d80df) — Thu, Nov 26 · 8:30 AM · Dallas City Hall · From $15 · checked Oct 24.
