AirAsia today announced the return of its signature regional running event series, AirAsia RedRun, with an ambitious seven-city schedule for 2026. This series will cover major locations within its Asean and Asia network. More than just a race, RedRun highlights the airline’s dedication to promoting active lifestyles and meaningful travel by linking communities through sports and enabling travel across the region.

AirAsia RedRun returns with a seven-city regional rollout across Asean and beyond, with Cebu among the key hubs

RedRun, first introduced in 2025, has rapidly evolved beyond just a brand-owned sports event. Driven by AirAsia’s bold and vibrant spirit, it has transformed into a regional movement that crosses borders, unites cultures, and turns key destinations within the AirAsia network into a finish line worth traveling for.

Amanda Woo, Chief Commercial Officer of AirAsia X, said: “RedRun represents what AirAsia stands for. We built our network across more than 150 destinations to link Asia together, and RedRun is what happens when bold ambitions meet real connections. We’re bringing people together through a shared passion for sport, turning every destination into a reason to fly. For us, this is not just a run, it’s an opportunity to explore.”

In 2026, the series will be held in seven cities throughout the year, including Da Nang, Bali, Kota Kinabalu, Cebu, Phuket, Surabaya, and Taipei. These locations will host vibrant race weekends that blend fitness, travel, and exploration.
