The 2026 Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend is coming back with a 5K, 10K, Half Marathon, and Two Course Challenge. Each race will have exclusive character meet-and-greets, unique photo opportunities, and those gorgeous shiny medals that you’ll get to take home for finishing the race. Speaking of, Disney just gave us a sneak peek of the medals, so let’s check them out!

This year, the 2026 Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend 5K is themed after a Disney classic, The Aristocats! The race will feature character sightings, entertainment, and refreshments and eats like the Crème de la Crème à la Edgar beverage and Pastry Crackers in France. For completing the race, runners will get a participant shirt and the 5K Finisher Medal featuring the kittens we all love — Marie, Toulouse, and Berlioz. Isn’t the medal adorable?!

The 10K race is a 6.2-mile run themed after the Three Caballeros! Just like the 5K, this race will feature Disney character sightings and entertainment, and on-course and post-race refreshments. Make sure to check out the tamales in Mexico. For completing the race, runners will get a participant shirt and a 10K Finisher Medal featuring Donald Duck, José Carioca, and Panchito Pistoles.

Runners may be relying on a spoonful of sugar to get them through the Half Marathon, which is hosted by Mary Poppins! The 13.1-mile course will also have Disney character sightings and entertainment throughout the race, and on-course and post-race refreshments. For completing the race, runners will receive a participant shirt, a free $15 Disney Promo Card, and a Half Marathon Finisher Medal.

Lastly, the Disney Wine & Dine Challenge is 19.3 miles made up of the 10K and Half Marathon. The challenge is hosted by Grumpy from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs! Of course, the race will feature character sightings and entertainment, and on-course and post-race refreshments, including pretzels in Germany. Runners will receive a participant shirt and a $15 Disney Promo Card.
