Disney has big news for early risers and eager runners—runDisney is making room for more magic at the 2026 Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend.
Starting this year, registration availability for the 5k race is expanding across all four Walt Disney World race weekends. That means more chances to snag a bib and join the fun, whether you’re a seasoned runDisney vet or finally ready to chase that first finish line.
If you’re planning to run the Wine & Dine 5k, set those alarms early. The first wave of runners will now hit the course at 4:30 a.m. (a full 30 minutes earlier than previous years) to accommodate more capacity. Start times will now span from 4:30 a.m. to 7:30 a.m., depending on your assigned start group.
Registration opens for Wine and Dine on February 10, 2026, at 10am EST, and with more spots available, this could be your year to join the magic!
