Multi-award winning producer Diplo isn’t just making music these days, he’s also organizing runs.
Dubbed Diplo’s Run Club, the producer, DJ, and frontman for Major Lazer, is setting his sights on what’s likely to be the most interesting running event of the year.
Diplo’s Run Club is a 5K event that combines what the musician has become known for: running and party music. The event starts with a scenic 5K route and is immediately followed by a party that boasts food, drinks, and live music featuring popular bands and top DJs.

As of now, there are two runs scheduled for September of this year. The first of which will take place in San Francisco, California and the second in Seattle, Washington. The San Francisco run will start at the city’s iconic pier area, while the Seattle run will begin at the Gas Works Park.
Both routes will follow along each city’s respective waterfronts, so you’ll never run out of interesting sights to see.
For $129, the run also offers a virtual 5K experience if you can’t make it in person but still want to participate
The run’s most basic package costs $19, while the VIP package with a custom bib, dedicated start corral with special guests, VIP side stage access, and exclusive access to VIP food and drinks cost $179. But as with most runs, their early bird promo (which is happening right now) means tickets are marked down to $74 and $139 for the basic and VIP packages respectively.
For $129, the run also offers a virtual 5K experience if you can’t make it in person but still want to participate. You’ll get their running app so you can run wherever you want as well as the full race kit including a bib, a shirt, as well as a special gift. The virtual experience is currently on early bird offer for $84.
