The night run with the music on is back in Playa Blanca: entries open for 28 November

It is not a race that takes itself too seriously, and perhaps that is why it works: the Playa Blanca Music Run Night is a night race with the music on along the route, the lights up and a crowd out on the street clapping. This year it falls on Saturday 28 November, and entries are open.
The distances
Three, for different levels: one mile (1.6km), 5 kilometres and 10 kilometres. Children, teenagers and adults run it, amateurs alongside professionals, and it is an inclusive race, open to people of differing abilities.
The circuit final
The Playa Blanca Music Run Night is part of the Series Music Run Night de Canarias, a regional circuit that travels through different municipalities and islands of the archipelago. This year Lanzarote's largest resort hosts the grand final of the 2026 Series: the circuit's final standings are decided here.
How to enter
Entries are handled at www.summitsportsevents.com, where you can also check the circuit's provisional standings.
Yaiza's mayor, Óscar Noda, and sport councillor Ángel Lago, defend the council's backing for a race that is 'festive and inclusive, and does more than any other to bring whole families out' — and that brings custom to local businesses.
