Night Nation Run - Seattle 2026

The Seattle Night Nation Run is a nighttime 5K held at Lumen Field, structured more like a music event than a typical road race. The organizers refer to the series as the world's first Running Music Festival, including pre-race music, a race bib, a glow necklace, giveaways, and concert access with registration. The course guides runners through live DJ areas, bubble zones, light shows, neon, and black lights, concluding at a main-stage after-party featuring headliner DJs. Over 2 million people globally have participated in Night Nation events. The series also supports Stand Up To Cancer, an organization dedicated to accelerating cancer research and delivering new treatments to patients.
