Join us on Saturday, June 20 for the Celebration of Life Pin Fun Run & Fireworks Festival--an evening of community, fun, and purpose unlike any other 5K or summer festival in the region (MINUTES FROM GILLETTE STADIUM).

This year's race introduces a first-of-its-kind collectible enamel pin experience built into the 5K route.

Runners, walkers, and roller collect five exclusive enamel pins at checkpoints, each one a piece of a larger puzzle, each carrying its own name and story.

Hidden among them: rare variant pins only a handful of runners will find, including a limited-edition collaboration pin with An Unlikely Story, the beloved bookstore owned by Jeff Kinney, creator of Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

The festival includes: live music | local food & drink vendors | festival games, obstacle courses, & glow party at sunset | foam pit & face painting | a Customization Station (mix and match your own premium merch so you get exactly what you want--we make it right there in front of you) | big silent auction + raffle prizes | pro fireworks finale by the crew behind Provincetown's wildly popular July 4th show.

The fireworks are free and open to everyone.

No registration required to come hang out and watch.

All funds CAR-T cancer clinical trials at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Seattle Children's Hospital in honor of the For Kids' Sake Foundation's co-founders' daughter Malia Jusczyk who died in 2023 of the very cancer they're aiming to crush with your help.
