AirAsia RedRun returns with a seven-city regional rollout spanning Asean and beyond, featuring Cebu as a key hub



AirAsia announced the return of AirAsia RedRun, its trademark regional running event series, with a bold seven-city debut in 2026, covering important sites across its Asean and Asia network. RedRun is more than just a race event; it underscores the airline's commitment to healthy lives and purposeful travel by linking communities through sports and facilitating travel throughout the region. 

RedRun, which debuted in 2025, has swiftly grown into more than just a brand-owned sporting initiative. Fueled by AirAsia's bold and dynamic DNA, it has evolved into a regional movement that crosses boundaries, links cultures, and transforms important AirAsia network locations into finish lines worth flying for.

“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.” ~Amanda Woo, Chief Commercial Officer of AirAsia X

In 2026, the series will expand to seven locations throughout the year, including Da Nang, Bali, Kota Kinabalu, Cebu, Phuket, Surabaya, and Taipei, transforming major cities into high-energy racing weekends that mix fitness, tourism, and discovery. Three cities have officially confirmed their race dates and are now accepting registration, with additional venues to be announced gradually. Participants will also be able to take advantage of special bargains on flights, hotels, and other travel add-ons designed to help racers and improve their race weekend experience at each destination, thanks to AirAsia's larger travel ecosystem.
