Daman’s ActiveLife Electric Run has just set the date for its Abu Dhabi debut on 29 January 2016 following the successful launch of the Dubai event.

The global phenomenon is set to thrill Abu Dhabi residents in the new year after taking Dubai by storm on November 6 at Meydan.

Fans can register their interest on the Notify Me List and be the first to know about the venue and ticket sales on www.ElectricRun.ae by clicking on the ‘Locations’ link on the homepage.

With tickets selling fast and thousands of Electric Runners already signed up for the Dubai event, organisers expect a similar buzz when the race hits Abu Dhabi.

“We are delighted to bring to the UAE capital the world’s most social fun run. Soon Abu Dhabi residents will have the chance to buy tickets with their friends and family for this unique music and light spectacle,” said David Sanderson, Event Director from race organisers Fast Track. 

Hailed as the World’s Brightest 5K, the event is open to people of all ages whether you are a runner or a mall walker.

Aspiring Electric Runners are welcome to not only run the race but walk and dance their way to the finish line where they will be treated to a post-event concert with an epic light show and DJ sets.

Electric Run skyrocketed in popularity since 2013 and has electrified London, Chicago, Los Angeles, Singapore, Sydney and New York.

It has reached millions worldwide and this November for the first time in the region Dubai will play host to this global sensation.

The 5k route includes seven course lands Electro Rainforest, Rainbow Road, Candy Lane, Neffmaus Land, Colour Brick Road, The Powerhouse and Under the Sea.
