Join the Boots Night Walk on Tuesday 8 September 2026
Now in its fifteenth year, walk 3.5km with us in this year’s Boots Night Walk in Dublin’s Phoenix Park, take part wherever you are, or make a donation to support the Irish Cancer Society Night Nursing Service.
Through the generosity of Boots customers and colleagues, our partnership with the Irish Cancer Society has raised more than €4.5 million, helping to provide the equivalent of over 11,400 nights of care.
This September, every registration, every donation and every step can help provide more nights of care for families across Ireland.

Walk at your own location
Can’t join us in Dublin? You can still be part of the Boots Night Walk wherever you are.
Register for €15, choose your own location and complete a walk of approximately 3.5km on Tuesday 8 September. Walk through your neighbourhood, local park or somewhere that holds special meaning for you.
Donate what you can
You don’t have to walk to make a difference. Every donation helps the Irish Cancer Society provide compassionate Night Nursing care for cancer patients in their own homes allowing patients to remain at home for the last days of their lives.
Our €3 Honour Tags will also be available in Boots stores nationwide. Write the name of someone you would like to remember, celebrate or honour and bring your tag to the walk, or keep it somewhere meaningful to you.

Colleagues from Boots and the Irish Cancer Society, along with members of the public come together at the Night Walk to reflect, remember and honour these individuals affected by cancer.

Your safety is very important to us. If you decide to join the public walk, please make sure you are sufficiently fit and healthy enough to complete it. The route is on footpaths and will have a slight incline at various stages. If you have any health conditions that might impact your ability to walk 3.5 kilometres, we recommend checking with your doctor before participating.
