There will be marshals along the route to direct runners and walkers, as well as signs with reflective tape which will light up when the torches shine on them.
The race starts at 6.30pm and everyone who finishes will receive a medal that glows in the dark, along with a technical T-shirt.
Organisers are encouraging people who take part to raise money for Wigan and Leigh Hospice.
