Family Field Day at Marbles Playway and Moore Square
Get ready for a day of non-stop movement and excitement at the upcoming Family Field Day, taking place on Saturday, May 2, 2026, at the outdoor Marbles Playway and Moore Square in Raleigh. This high-energy festival invites families to come together for a celebration of active play and community spirit. Attendees can participate in a variety of classic field day activities, including the iconic three-legged race, a whimsical egg and spoon walk, and engaging family freeze dance sessions.
The highlight of the event is the kid-friendly try-athlon, a unique non-competitive course where children are encouraged to run, walk, or even dance their way through the challenges. Guests will also enjoy live entertainment on the main stage featuring performances from local groups like the YMCA Super Skippers and Baile Folklorico Vicky, all set to the rhythm of DJ Remedy. This event is entirely free to the public, offering a perfect opportunity to get outdoors and create lasting memories. Mark your calendars and join us for this vibrant community experience designed to inspire movement and joy for all ages.
