Published programme
Run Busan is Busan Metropolitan City's flagship running brand, offering varied running content so anyone can enjoy running easily in daily life. The Run Busan Running Festival is a participatory sports festival that brings residents together through running. It takes place on November 14 (Saturday) at North Port Waterfront Park, where Busan's sea and city scenery meet. Programs include the Sunset Run (5km) against Busan's beautiful sunset, a Running Crew Ranking Competition showcasing crews' teamwork and passion, and Challenge! Citizens' Fitness Test, where anyone can check their fitness and try different exercises. Moving beyond uniform events centered on marathons and competitive times, it is designed so beginners and experienced runners alike can enjoy running at their own pace and in their own way. Beyond running itself, activities for families, friends and couples, together with opportunities for running crews to meet, aim to spread a healthy community sports culture and share the pleasure of running together. A running talk show, running fashion contest, celebratory performances, recreation and prize draws also welcome residents who are not running participants. Under the slogan 'The joy of running together: let's run Busan!', the festival combines running, everyday sport, culture and play as Busan's representative participatory running festival.
