The Wisconsin Beer Run 5k & .05k

at Old World Wisconsin

We're back at Old World Wisconsin for the 2023 Beer Run 5k & .05k! Join us on Sunday, October 29 2023.

That’s right, OWW is not just for field trips anymore. We’re celebrating the brand new Brewhouse in true Wisconsin Beer Run fashion. All participants will receive a sample of Old World’s historic beer, brewed on-site, and a full-size celebratory finisher's beer from our sponsor. And of course, the famous beer run swag!

The course will take you through the unique and crafted areas of Old World Wisconsin. Traveling through the Crossroads Village, passing by The Life on The Farms, and then sneaking a behind-the-scenes look at the modern animal barn. Beer Runners will journey through the Scandinavian Homestead before crossing the finish line back in the Village. On this special access visit to Old World Wisconsin, you’ll be surrounded by the peaceful sounds of nature, grazing farm animals, and vivid autumn leaves.

Over in the garden, the beer will be flowing, music will be jumpin’, and folks will be celebrating their victories with breathtaking autumn views.
