THE PINK BRA RUN is more than a 5K race...it’s a Saturday morning fun run, relaxed ride, and Festival of Hope in beautiful Old Gretna. Participate any way you like: run or walk along the Mississippi River levee with the beautiful New Orleans skyline in the background or Ride your bike from the Algiers ferry landing on a scenic route, through Federal City & Algiers Point, into Old Gretna and finish with the Pink Bra Runners or Run or ride whenever you'd like - as a Virtual Runner/Rider or Sign up to Sit on Your Couch in your Pink Bra.
PINK BRA RUN/WALK/RIDE 2025
If you are familiar with New Orleanians and their costumes, then this run/walk/ride is sure to be a sight and this year will be even better. Come out and enjoy...even the dogs wear bras. All proceeds benefit Tulane Cancer Center's breast cancer research efforts.
Event Details
5K Run/Walk: Starting at 8am in Old Gretna near the Mississippi River levee across from the RiverShack (714 1st St. Gretna), the Pink Bra Run offers one of the most beautiful views of the New Orleans skyline. The fun run/walk starts at 8am at the Gretna Ferry Landing, heads straight down the levee path to the Mississippi River Bridge designated turnaround and head back towards the start/finish line. Show up in running gear or in costume or both – remember, this is a Pink Bra Run/Walk …so bedazzle that bra and let's get some fresh air!
8 Mile Scenic Bike Ride: Starting at 7:30am at the Algiers Ferry Landing, cyclists take a 8-mile leisurely tour downriver to Federal City, through Algiers Point, and finish at the RiverShack in Old Gretna with the runners/walkers. Riders need to report to the Algiers Ferry Landing at 7:00am for a group start at 7:30am. Like the runners, be sure and costume up. You might even win the Best Decorated Bra Contest.
After Party & Festival of Hope: The post-run/bike party features the Best Decorated Bra Contest, Survivor's Dance, kids activities, and more. What's a New Orleans party without food? We will be serving jambalaya, red beans and rice, Pabst Blue Ribbon beer and water under the Jefferson Memorial Arch.
