Rabat is set to pulse with energy as RabatRun 2026 returns for its 4th edition on April 25–26 in the heart of the iconic Forêt Ibn Sina. Blending sport, wellness, and community spirit, the event is becoming one of Morocco’s most engaging urban fitness experiences.

The 4th edition of RabatRun will take place in the Forêt Ibn Sina, one of the capital’s most important green lungs. Organized by TheCityRun association, this initiative is part of a growing national movement promoting active lifestyles and healthier communities across Morocco.

A Growing Movement for Health & Wellbeing

RabatRun is more than just a sporting event. It represents a broader shift toward healthier living in Morocco. Designed to be inclusive, it welcomes everyone—from beginners and families to experienced runners—creating a positive and motivating environment.

The goal goes beyond a weekend gathering: encouraging long-term physical activity and building a strong, active community in Rabat and beyond.

Program Highlights: Accessible & Inclusive

Over two days, RabatRun 2026 offers a variety of activities suited to all fitness levels:

  • Walking sessions for beginners and families
  • Outdoor fitness classes led by professional coaches
  • Timed race on Sunday with distances ranging from 3 km to 15 km
  • Nature experience in Rabat’s largest urban forest

The highlight of the event is the Sunday timed race, where participants start together and are ranked based on the distance completed, allowing flexibility and inclusivity.

A Strong Local & National Impact

RabatRun has established itself as a key event in Morocco’s local sports calendar. As part of the national TheCityRun program, it has already attracted thousands of participants across multiple cities.

The 2026 edition aims to expand even further, reinforcing Morocco’s growing culture of fitness and wellbeing while highlighting the importance of preserving urban green spaces like the Forêt Ibn Sina.

Free Event Open to All

One of RabatRun’s strongest values is accessibility. The event is free and open to everyone, made possible through partnerships between public and private stakeholders.

This inclusive approach transforms RabatRun into a true community celebration, where sport becomes a shared experience of connection, health, and enjoyment.

Why RabatRun 2026 Matters

As Morocco prepares for major international events and continues investing in sports infrastructure, initiatives like RabatRun play a crucial role in promoting grassroots participation.

By combining sport, nature, and community, RabatRun 2026 reflects a modern vision of urban living—active, sustainable, and inclusive.
