Dubai Run 2026 will turn Sheikh Zayed Road into a running track on 22 November, with registration now open through the Dubai Fitness Challenge website. The 5km route heads past the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Opera and finishes near Dubai Mall, while the 10km route finishes near the DIFC Gate Building.
Participants can collect their bibs and T-shirts at the Dubai Municipality 30x30 Fitness Village at Zabeel Park from 9 to 21 November. Opening hours vary by day, with longer hours at weekends, so residents and visitors planning to take part can pick up their kit in advance of the event.
