Waka Flocka's Flock Run
Saturday, November 14, 2026
Queen City, closing out the 2026 run. Bring your run club and bring your people.
Charlotte early access
Two thousand people registered for Atlanta and every spot was gone inside ten days. The list below is how you get in first.
How to get in
You do not have to run to be here. Come for the whole thing or come for the party.
The full day. Run or walk the 5K, then everything after it.
Registration opens soon, and the list hears first.
Skip the run, come for the vendor village, the DJ, and the concert. Bring the family.
Charlotte specifics
Charlotte closes out 2026, and that makes it the loudest one. By November the flock will have run Atlanta and Las Vegas, and everybody showing up will know exactly what they came for.
Mid-November in Charlotte typically means mornings in the 50s. Layer up for the start and plan to shed something by the first mile. This is the coldest start of the season and honestly the best one to run fast in.
Atlanta proved what happens when this part of the country decides to come out. Charlotte is a four-hour drive from Atlanta, so expect a lot of returning faces.
Charlotte Douglas is one of the busiest airports in the country and cheap to fly into from almost anywhere on the East Coast.
Charlotte has one of the fastest growing run club scenes in the Southeast. Bring yours, get group entry, get announced.
November 14 is a Saturday, and it is the last one of the year. Do not sit this one out.
Charlotte run day
Doors early, run at the top, then the part nobody leaves for. Charlotte: 11am to 2pm.
Registration opens hours before the start. Hydration stations and pre-workout meal vendors so you're not running on empty.
The whole flock warms up together before anybody moves.
Five kilometers through Charlotte, or a couple of miles if that's your day. Run it, walk it, pace it with a crew. Nobody gets left behind.
Cold plunges, a recovery lounge, and stretch and sport massage tables. What that actually does for you.
Eat, meet the flock, shop the Charlotte drop, and catch the DJ.
You ran. You earned it. The day closes with a headline show.
Find your crew
The question we get most is whether someone is fit enough. If you can walk three miles, you belong here. Never run a 5K before?
Fast as Flock. Chasing a time, setting the tone.
The heart of the flock. Conversational, social, loud.
Jog it, walk it, run-walk it. First-timers welcome.

Tentative for 2027
