A global celebration of women and wellness in the city that inspires.
This November, Dubai’s most inspiring run for women and girls is back – and it’s more than just a race. She Runs 2025 will once again set the streets of Expo City Dubai alive with energy, welcoming thousands from across the UAE and beyond for a powerful weekend of wellness, culture, and connection.
Taking place on Sunday, November 2nd, the event offers the perfect excuse for fitness enthusiasts, families, and adventure-seekers to plan a trip to Dubai during its sun-soaked winter season. Known for its futuristic skyline, cultural gems, and world-class hospitality, Dubai now adds She Runs to the list of must-do experiences for visitors seeking something meaningful on their travels.
“Expo City is a city of possibilities – and that’s exactly what She Runs represents,” said Dr. Harmeek Singh, CEO of Plan b Group. “For every girl crossing the starting line, this isn’t just a race. It’s a beginning – for confidence, connection, and community.”
Now in its 12th year and newly rebranded from the Women’s Run, She Runs has become a magnet for both residents and international guests. In 2024, over 5,000 attendees – including more than 2,000 school-aged girls – took part. This year, organisers expect participation to grow by 20%, drawing in runners and supporters from across the Gulf, Europe, and Asia.
