The runners, clad in bright orange T-shirts, became a traditional element of the Grand Finale events. This edition marks the change of the name of the race - we are adding one more theme: learning first aid. We feel that there is still a lot to be done in the area of promoting and supporting first aid education in Poland. That's why we decided to divide proceeds from entry fees between two worthy causes: purchasing insulin pumps for pregnant women with diabetes and supporting first aid education programme in Polish public primary schools.
The 5K run, which is family friendly event, will take place on January the 15th, 2017. The event in Warsaw will be attended by 5 000 runners, but there are going to be local editions of the race, which will be held in different parts of the country by local Collection Centres. As there is no age limit for entering this race, so you can make it a family outing - everyone is welcome to join!
For the eighteenth time, Jurek Owsiak, this time from the final stage on the PGE Narodowy meadows in Warsaw, opened the joyful run under the same slogan "Get Even with Diabetes". Crowds of running enthusiasts, after a five-kilometre route through the streets of Warsaw, will reach the finish line located in the same place.
As you already know, we play with everyone and for everyone. What is more, in Warsaw we play in a totally new location! For the first time ever the heart of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity will be beating at the PGE Narodowy meadows.
On the occasion of the 32nd Grand Finale of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity we have prepared lots of attractions for you! We would like to invite you to the PGE Narodowy meadows, where you can enjoy live music, visit our studio and the partners’ zone. Our partners have prepared various activities and warm drinks for you!
