The São Silvestre de Leiria takes place in the city of Leiria in central Portugal on Sunday 20 December 2026, one of the many São Silvestre races held across Portugal in the run-up to Christmas. Two options are on the programme: a 10 km run, the competitive race of the day, and a 5 km walk that is open to anyone who prefers to cover the distance at an easier pace. Both distances start and finish in Leiria, with the routes run on city streets. Start times, entry fees and the exact course layout are published by the organiser on the event website, and entrants are advised to check there for the latest information before race day.
