Get ready to swap your ordinary Friday night for one that shines bright under the stars. On Friday, 24 October, Palm Hills New Cairo will transform into a dazzling playground of neon lights, pumping music and glowing runners as The Glow Run 2025 kicks off. Starting at 8 pm, with arrivals from 7 pm, this event promises a night of colour, fitness and fun like no other.
What Is the Glow Run?
The Glow Run is not your average race. Organised by The TriFactory in collaboration with Palm Hills Developments, it’s a five-kilometre untimed night run designed for all ages and abilities. It’s about energy, laughter and togetherness, not competition. The course bursts with bright UV lights, glow-in-the-dark paint, and music that keeps the crowd moving. Think of it as a blend between a fitness challenge and a neon festival.
The Arcade Edition Experience
This year’s theme, “The Arcade Edition,” brings a fresh, video-game-inspired twist to the event. Runners will find themselves immersed in a world of glowing checkpoints, flashing lights and playful interactive visuals designed by lighting specialists LUMINO. The experience feels straight out of an old-school arcade but reimagined in real life.
The Party Doesn’t Stop at the Finish Line
Once you cross the glowing finish arch, the celebration truly begins. A massive post-run party will take over the Palm Hills venue, featuring live music from Disco Misr and an atmosphere charged with joy, dance and colour. Whether you’re running, walking or simply spectating, the after-party makes sure everyone ends the night on a high note.
What to Expect
Participants will receive a commemorative T-shirt, a finisher’s medal, and a race pack that sets the tone for the night ahead. The run covers a fun five kilometres through the illuminated Palm Hills landscape, surrounded by upbeat tunes and fellow runners glowing head to toe. Spectators can join the fun too, with dedicated passes available for those who just want to enjoy the show and party vibes.
Don’t miss this Glow Run 2025! It is about embracing movement, music and light in one spectacular evening. It’s perfect for friends, families, fitness lovers or anyone craving something different from Cairo’s usual nightlife. It doesn’t matter how fast you go; what matters is that you glow, laugh and create memories that shine long after the night ends. Sign up and get the tickets from here.
