Vienna Night Run returns on 16 September 2027 for a five-kilometre lap of Vienna’s Ring Road.

The organiser lists individual entry from €38 plus a €1 booking fee until the end of 2026. The wave start times are not yet clearly attributable to the 2027 edition because an old 2026 note remains on the page.
Every year in Vienna: Vienna Night Run
From the Vienna Night Run to running groups in the Prater, guided bike tours and yoga in the park: most of these you can join, a few are just for watching.
Races and bike tours often need registration, sometimes with an entry fee. Open running groups, yoga in the park or taster sessions usually don't. Each event says what applies.
