UAE residents will be treated to an extraordinary race experience that has quickly become the biggest night run in the world. More than one million people have taken part in the 5km night race around the world since its inception in 2013, with over 15 countries and 30 cities hosting the event including the likes of London, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Singapore and Sydney.
More than just a night run, the event format features up to seven ‘lands’, including Electro Rainforest, Rainbow Road, Sweet Tooth Acres, Neffmaus Land, The Powerhouse, Electric Avenue, Pillar Party, and the all-new Under the Sea. Each land is unique and is composed of different artistic elements to convey different moods, ranging from energetic to ethereal, transporting participants to different worlds.
The 5km neon-lit track also sees giant light installations, DJs blasting international modern electric music, and an epic end-of-run concert.
Dan Hill, Founder of Electric Run, says: “Electric Run has fast become the favourite and most exciting addition to the new wave of experience-led running events and I am looking forward to see how the UAE will make it its own, bringing together people from all walks of life.”
The inaugural event has already attracted the title sponsorship of Daman’s ActiveLife brand, an initiative that aims to mobilize the UAE community to lead a healthy, active lifestyle through a wide range of events and programmes, who are also behind the likes of The Color Run and TriYas.
