Celebrate The Original Southaven in the West End District. Take a step back-in-time. Journey to the 80s—together as part of our community’s huge leap forward with the Inaugural West End Retro Race 5K and Family Fun Run on Saturday, October 31, 2026. Starting at City Hall, race through Southaven’s civic corridor to Stateline Rd and wind through Carriage Hills, making your way back to Saucier Park for food, family activities, and live music.

Whether you're tackling the 5K or bringing the family for the 1K, this event promises a full day of retro-themed fun for all ages. Dig out your neon headbands, dust off your classic Walkman and Members Only Jackets, and join us for an unforgettable celebration that promises to become a cherished annual event.
