About the race

Run Media City is an evening road race held on Thursday 27 May 2027 in MediaCity UK, Salford. The event offers two distance options:

  • 5K
  • 10K

The course is a 2.5 km loop on tarmac and paved paths around the Media City Piazza. The route passes over the Millennium Bridge, past the Imperial War Museum and around the ITV and BBC television studios. Runners complete laps of this loop to make the advertised distances. Each kilometre is marked and marshals are present on course.

Entries include a unique themed medal, free race photos, chip timed results, post race goodies and a bag drop. Water stations are provided every 2.5 km and additional water is available at the finish. Portable toilets are available in the event village and can be accessed during the laps.

The event village provides food and drink options and race pack collection on the day. Accessibility arrangements welcome wheelchair athletes and runners with buggies; running with dogs is not permitted. Minimum age limits apply: 11 for the 5K and 15 for the 10K. There is a two hour cut off for the race due to its evening format. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
