Los Muertos 5K · Carrera de los Muertos
On Saturday, October 31, 2026 at 8:00 AM, the Los Muertos 5K starts and finishes at Olvera Street and runs out Alameda and up Spring Street through Chinatown. These are the businesses on the streets the race runs through. We are CityStage, the team behind the race, and this is our thank you to the neighbors who share their corridor with us.
Route: Olvera St start & finish · N Main St · N Alameda St · W College St · N Spring St through Chinatown
Corridor spotlights
1001 N Alameda St
Corridor spotlight: Philippe The Original at 1001 N Alameda St, home of the French Dipped sandwich, ordered single dipped, double dipped, or wet, with the house hot mustard.
Historic counter service, communal tables, and sawdust floors, right at the start of our Los Muertos 5K corridor. The race runs through these streets on Saturday, Oct 31. Proud to share Alameda with a true LA original.
130 W Bruno St
Corridor spotlight: Homegirl Café at 130 W Bruno St, serving chilaquiles, masa pancakes, churro French toast, and tacos, as a Homeboy Industries job training social enterprise.
This corner is also home turf for the Homeboy Industries 5K, which starts and finishes at 130 W Bruno, and it sits on our Los Muertos 5K corridor. Two races, one neighborhood that shows up for its own.
1300 N Spring St
Corridor spotlight: Nick's Cafe at 1300 N Spring St, an old school diner holding down the horseshoe counter since 1948, famous for its ham and eggs.
Nick's is directly on the Los Muertos 5K Spring St segment, and the team worked with us on race morning access from W Elmyra St. That is what a corridor partner looks like. Thank you, Nick's.
1220 N Spring St
Corridor spotlight: Highland Park Brewery at 1220 N Spring St, pouring Timbo Pils, the Hello, LA West Coast IPA, and Baseball Lager in a warehouse taproom.
Picnic tables inside, a dog friendly patio facing Los Angeles State Historic Park, and the Los Muertos 5K running right past on Spring St on Saturday, Oct 31. Post race pours do not get a better backdrop.
1646 N Spring St, Unit C
Corridor spotlight: Angeleno Wine Company at 1646 N Spring St, a working urban winery pouring its own wines, made on site from Los Angeles County grapes.
Tastings run Friday to Sunday at picnic tables set among the wine tanks in a 1925 brick building, at the north end of our Los Muertos 5K corridor. LA wine, made on the route.
1640 N Spring St, Ste A
Corridor spotlight: Kissaten Corazon at 1640 N Spring St, a quiet Japanese inspired coffee bar pouring pour overs and a strawberry sesame latte, with egg sandos on shokupan.
Fireside nook, semi outdoor patio, and the Los Muertos 5K running past the door on Spring St on Saturday, Oct 31. The calm corner of the corridor.
11 E Olvera St
Corridor spotlight: El Paseo Inn at 11 Olvera St, tableside guacamole, sizzling fajitas, and specialty margaritas on one of the most historic patios in Los Angeles.
El Paseo sits in the Los Muertos 5K start and finish area on Olvera St, where this race benefits the Olvera Street Merchants Association Foundation. Race day begins and ends among neighbors like these.
818 N Spring St, Ste 103
Corridor spotlight: Pho Saigon Republic at 818 N Spring St, serving 27 pho varieties, from the Pho Dac Biet combination to filet mignon and oxtail, plus spring rolls and ca phe sua da.
