Walk for Parkinson's

The Walk for Parkinson's takes to the streets of Philadelphia on Saturday, October 24, 2026. It's a charity walk, with the funds going toward Parkinson's research, and the route goes through the city rather than staying inside a park or a single venue. The walk starts at S LOT & TNY Streets, and it runs from 11 AM to 2 PM, so it's a midday thing that fits into a Saturday morning or afternoon.

If you've never done a charity walk like this, the setup is pretty straightforward: you show up, walk a set distance with a crowd of other people, and the money raised goes toward research into Parkinson's. It's one of those events where the point is as much about showing up and being seen as it is about the actual distance you cover. The route takes you through Philadelphia's streets, so you'll be walking right through the city rather than on a closed track.

It's a three-hour window, from 11 AM to 2 PM, which gives you plenty of time to get settled and walk at your own pace. Since it's a Saturday, it's an easy one to build into the day—you can make it your main plan or just one part of your weekend. The walk starts at S LOT & TNY Streets, and the funds raised go toward Parkinson's research. If you're looking for a way to spend a Saturday morning supporting a cause, this is a concrete way to do it.
