The course and event day

The bubble experience

The 2027 course is a 2.5K loop that participants do twice, for a 5K total.

The official About page says the course starts in a sea of bubbles and has four bubble stations, where cannons pump out coloured foam to create a four-foot-deep bubble bath. You can run, jog, walk, dance or toddle, and the event is not timed.

The event-day page says foam cannons fire at the start, there is music at the stations, and a selfie inflatable pit at the finish.

On the day

The official site says to arrive with time to soak up the atmosphere. There have been merchandise stalls and other entertainment, and an MC leads warm-up games before the start.

It also says there are usually facilities on site so you can change into dry clothes, and that the charity hosting the event emails an information pack a couple of weeks before.

Needs Spencer 2027 youth ages and which children need a ticket — published sources disagree (2026 Race Roster: youth 18 and under, infants under 1 free; older official city pages: no age limit, kids 3 and under free).

Weather

Refunds and transfers for 2027 follow the policy on this page: tickets are not refundable unless you added Refund Protection; otherwise a ticket can be transferred for a $13.50 fee.

Bubble Chase FAQs

What is included in a 2027 ticket?

Needs SpencerThe 2027 kit has not been confirmed. Past Race Roster pages listed an entry wristband and a Bubble Chase medal; older official city pages listed other items too. None of those past kits should be treated as the 2027 inclusion list.

What is the course?

The 2027 course is a 2.5K loop that participants do twice, for a 5K total. The official site says the event is not timed, and you can run, jog, walk, dance or toddle.

Is the event timed?

No. The official Bubble Chase site says events are not timed, and you can run, jog, walk, dance or toddle. This matches the 2027 Event Info draft.

Are strollers and wheelchairs welcome?

Yes. The official About page says pushchairs and wheelchairs are more than welcome. The 2026 Saskatoon Race Roster page also said strollers are permitted.

What are the age rules, and do kids need a ticket?

Needs SpencerThe 2026 Race Roster pages said youth tickets are for 18 and under, participants 10 and under must be accompanied by a ticketed adult, and infants under 1 do not need a ticket. Older official city pages said there is no minimum or maximum age and kids 3 and under are free. Those sources conflict, so 2027 age and free-ticket rules are not stated here as fact. The official policies page does say participants under 13 must have a parent or guardian present at check-in.

Are tickets refundable?

Tickets are not refundable unless you add optional Refund Protection. Refund Protection is $10 per person (per ticket). On request, it gives a full ticket refund for any reason, including if the event is cancelled or postponed. The $10 Refund Protection fee itself is not refundable.

What happens in bad weather?

The official policy is that Bubble Chase goes ahead rain, shine or snow. In severe weather such as lightning or high winds, the event may be delayed, postponed to the next day, rescheduled, or cancelled, and parts of the course may be altered or withheld for safety. Refunds and transfers follow the 2027 policy: tickets are not refundable unless you added Refund Protection; otherwise a ticket can be transferred for a $13.50 fee.

Can I transfer my registration?

Without Refund Protection there are no refunds, but tickets can be transferred for a $13.50 transfer fee, either to next year’s event or to another existing event in the same series (the same brand).

When is packet pickup, and how do waves work?

Needs Spencer2026 Saskatoon Race Roster said packets were picked up on race day at the registration table, and waves began at 10:00 AM every 15 minutes. Older official city pages also mentioned arriving 30–45 minutes early. The 2027 city times on this preview are still tentative and should not be read as a confirmed wave schedule.

What should I wear, and can I get changed afterward?

Needs SpencerThe official site does not publish a clothing list. It does say there are usually facilities on site so you can change into dry clothes, and that merchandise stalls have been part of event day. A 2027 what-to-wear note and merch list: Needs Spencer.

Are pets allowed?

Needs SpencerThe official site and the 2026 Saskatoon Race Roster page we checked do not say whether pets are allowed.
