Soda Zitron Night Run (Kufstein)

The Soda Zitron Night Run (Kufstein) is a 5 km evening road race that takes place through Kufstein's atmospheric, illuminated old town, with the start and finish located at Fischergries. The course is described as four laps around the Festung Kufstein (Kufstein fortress), delivering a compact, spectator-friendly route that emphasises a night-time running experience. The organiser promotes a party-like atmosphere with strong spectator support and an award ceremony on the evening of the event. The event listing on the official pages confirms the date as 9 October 2026 and a main start time of 20:15.

Alongside the 5 km main race there is a separate 100 m sprint with its own timing and scoring, plus a programme of side events including a Glow Up (neon body painting), warm-up sessions, an expo area, a recovery lounge and food offerings. An after-party with a live DJ follows the sporting programme, underlining the event's "Lauf, Glow, Party" character. The event features a team competition where the largest team wins Saucony shirts for its members and the top five teams receive refreshments.
