Course des Lumières Lyon | Edition 2026 is an evening charity running and walking event that brings together participants, companies and families to "light up the night" in support of the Fondation Hospices Civils de Lyon (Fondation HCL). The Lyon edition centres on a festive village at Place du Maréchal Lyautey with DJs and food trucks from 16:30 and organised departures by wave later in the evening. The programme for 2026 includes both 5 km and 10 km formats and introduces a new timed 10 km "10km chrono" for runners seeking a measured performance.
The event mixes community participation and fundraising: individual tickets include a €10 donation to Fondation HCL and there are ambassador and enterprise options for structured fundraising. Practical information, bib pickup windows and participant services (bag drop, kit delivery or on-site pickup) are published on the official Lyon pages; route maps and exact wave start allocations are marked "à venir" (to be published) ahead of the race. The edition emphasises conviviality and solidarity with dedicated corporate and ambassador mechanics to collect online donations for the beneficiary.
Place du Maréchal Lyautey, 69006 Lyon, France
