Color Runners will have even more fun this year as we get ready to Dream in Color as part of The Color Run Dream World Tour. New and exclusive to this year will be the Foam Zone, where foam clouds make everything better, whilst of course, Color Runners will still be covered from head to toe in an array of colour in the Color Zones along the 5k route. Along the course, participants can show their aspirations on the Dream Wall, snap selfies with giant unicorns, and enjoy the ultimate color party with family and friends at the Finish Festival...including the famous color throws!

 

Each Color Runner will receive a fun participant kit, which includes; a limited‐edition Dream World Tour race shirt, embroidered headband, a fun temporary tattoo, welcome card, rainbow pencil and some awesome goodies from sponsors. Deluxe Runners will receive the kit plus a Gold bib for VIP Parking, a wristband, tutu, party socks and sunglasses for the ultimate Color Runner look on the day. Whether you bring your squad of bezzies or your crew of kids and family, it’s a 5k course that will have everyone feeling like they’re on cloud nine.

 

Greg Sproule, Managing Director of IMG Middle East said: “This year, we are going to take Color Runners to a world where anything is possible and inspire our participants to make their dreams a reality in this magical 5k course as The Color Run Dream World Tour comes to Dubai.”
