10k5knightfestivewintercity
São Silvestre de Braga is a December tradition that holds its 47th edition on Sunday 27 December 2026, starting at 7 pm. The main race is 10 km, with a 5.7 km walk for those who prefer. The course is a single loop from Praça da República through the historic centre and main avenues, entirely on asphalt and notably flat — the course record is under 29 minutes. Braga before New Year means floodlit churches and cathedral, Christmas lights, roasted chestnuts and the road up to Bom Jesus do Monte with its view over the city.
