Unprecedented evening of performances scheduled at Dresden City Festival.
The vibrant city of Dresden is gearing up for an exciting running event as part of its annual City Festival in 2025. The Dresden City Festival Night Run, a much-anticipated addition to the city's calendar, will take place alongside the World Transplant Games, which are scheduled from August 17 to 24, 2025.
One of the highlights of the running events during this period is the #ReasonToGive RUN, powered by SachsenEnergie, which kicked off the Games at Dresden's Großer Garten on August 17, 2025, with around 500 participants. Although specific details about the Night Run, including routes, schedule beyond this date, and registration information, are not yet available in the available sources, the festive atmosphere of the #ReasonToGive RUN suggests a similarly lively Night Run possibly tied to the City Festival.
The City Festival and Games events are primarily held in central locations such as the Großer Garten and the iconic Frauenkirche area. However, for those specifically interested in the Night Run, the official Dresden City Festival Night Run website at www.dresdner-nachtlauf.de provides the most up-to-date information.
For those seeking a challenge, the Night Run offers two main distances: a 6.2 km run and an 11.5 km run. There's also a 1.8 km kids' run for younger participants, and a 400 m Bambini Run for the very youngest runners. The Night Run events are scheduled as follows: the 11.5 km Run at 10:15 PM, the 6.2 km Run at 6:45 PM, the 1.8 km Kids' Run at 8:00 PM, the 400 m Bambini Run at 7:15 PM. The start and finish locations for all runs, including the Bambini and kids' runs, are now specified as Terrassenufer, near the former Carolabridge.
