Santa Dash Day is just four weeks away - and we've almost hit 7,000 places. Amazing!

Event day is Sunday 7 December and we're counting down the days. Last year's event was the biggest dash for a decade. So don't miss out. Blue places have already sold out.

The shop has been open for just a week and we've welcomed a steady stream of Santas popping in to register in person, and plenty who have signed up online and bringing in their postal collection cards to pick up their Santa suits.

You can find us at St Johns Shopping Centre Liverpool near the Matalan bridge.

The Santa shop is open seven days a week through to Saturday 6 December.

Opening times are Monday to Saturday from 9.30am to 5pm, and Sunday between 11am and 4pm.

If you register online at www.btrliverpool.com you will need to wait to receive your collection card in the post. If you are collecting suits for other people you will also need to bring their cards along.

Or you can sign up in the shop and take everything away in one visit.

We hope to see you soon...Ho Ho Ho!

What a day - the Santa Dash pop-up shop for 2025 is now open!

We've had lots of eager Santas through the door to sign up or bringing in their collection cards to pick up their Santa suits - with everyone taking away their goodie bags.

Event day is Sunday 7 December. We've already had 5,000 entries, which is just fantastic - and we still have five weeks to go.

First red through the door today was Sarah Benson, who has already done the Santa Dash seven times.

Bernadette Doran was the first blue, she's dashed five times and is back again for this year's event.

And our first Mini Dash Santa visiting today was three-year-old Lottie, who will be taking part for the very first time. How exciting, we hope you have an amazing time!

Sunday opening hours are 11am to 4pm.

Register in person and take everything away with you. We can take cash or card payments in the shop.

SANTA DASH MEDAL REVEAL TO MARK 100-DAY COUNTDOWN

We are most definitely spoiling you this week BTR community.

Today marks the 100-day countdown to this year's BTR Liverpool Santa Dash on Sunday 7 December 2025.

So to mark this exciting milestone, we can reveal this year's red and blue medals for the main 5K Santa Dash.

They're generous in size, heavily glittered, and feature Santas and snowmen. Plus they're made from 100% recycled zinc.

And the icing on the Christmas cake, an astonishing 1,000 eager Santas have already signed up – that's double the number of sign-ups at the same point last year.

In Demand Radio is the event’s Official Media Partner.

Sponsors and supporting partners will be announced in the coming weeks.

Last year’s BTR Liverpool Santa Dash sold out a week before dash day – a first for the event. We had more than 8,500 red, blue and mini Santa entries, making it the biggest dash for a decade.

Walk, jog, or run alongside wheelchair participants, charities, families, baby Santas in prams, and four-legged furry Santas.

Blue suits are limited, so please register early so you don't miss out!
