Madd Monster Mash & Dash
About this race
It's not every day you get to run through SeaWorld Orlando before the park opens! On September 27th, we're bringing 1,000+ people together for the MADD Monster Mash & Dash — MADD Central Florida's signature fall race, where the costumes are just as important as the finish line.
Whether you're a serious runner or just here for the Kids Dash with the family, this is about more than just a medal!
What to Expect on Race Morning
- The Route: An exclusive course through the park — past the coasters and the water — before the crowds arrive.
- The Costume Contest: A full-out celebration with awards, a DJ, and surprises — the kind of energy that reminds you of the impact we create when we come together.
- The Memory Mile: A dedicated stretch of the course honoring those injured by or lost to impaired driving — the heart of everything we do.
- The Swag: Every participant earns a finisher medal! Register by September 13th to guarantee your custom event shirt and size.
- Silent Auction: Coming soon — stay tuned for exclusive items and experiences up for bid!
