Tomorrowland is teaming up with Lucky Stride Running Club to launch ZONE 5, a new concept that pairs a social 5K run with a daytime rave. The inaugural edition goes down in Antwerp on Saturday, August 29, with around 3,000 participants expected to take part.<\/p>\n

The format is straightforward: runners follow a curated route through the city, cross the finish line, and move directly into a purpose-built arena designed by Tomorrowland. From there, a two-hour alcohol-free rave takes over, with Emilija b2b Alycia Bezgo and Dimitri Vegas on the lineup. Doors open at 9:00am, the run kicks off at 10:00, and the whole thing wraps by 13:00.<\/p>\n

Tomorrowland has run similar experiences around its flagship festival previously \u2014 past editions have featured runs with John Summit, Steve Aoki, and Armin van Buuren. ZONE 5 brings the concept to Belgium for the first time, with Lucky Stride Running Club \u2014 one of Europe\u2019s faster-growing running communities \u2014 handling the course curation.<\/p>\n

The 5K isn\u2019t a race in the traditional sense. Participants are encouraged to move at their own pace, with the emphasis on collective experience over competition. The finish area isn\u2019t a finish area at all \u2014 it feeds straight into the rave arena, which is where the event really gets going.<\/p>\n

Stijn De Rooster, Alderman for Sports for the City of Antwerp, had this to say about the event: \u201cSport is constantly evolving and reaching people in new ways. ZONE 5 shows that movement can be about much more than competition. It brings people together, promotes an active lifestyle and creates a unique atmosphere where sport, music and community reinforce one another.\u201d<\/p>\n

The name itself comes from endurance training \u2014 Zone 5 is the highest heart rate zone, the point where intensity and adrenaline peak. That threshold is the through-line for the whole experience, from the opening kilometre to the closing set.<\/p>\n

Beyond the concept itself, Tomorrowland and Lucky Stride are positioning ZONE 5 as a format with room to grow. Antwerp is the starting point, but the plan is to expand to other European cities down the line.<\/p>\n

Pre-registration is open now at zone5.world<\/a>. An exclusive pre-sale goes live on July 14 at \u20ac39, with general sale following on July 16 at \u20ac45.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tomorrowland is teaming up with Lucky Stride Running Club to launch ZONE 5, a new concept that pairs…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":27051,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[6],"tags":[19,7,15277,15278,15279,9914,3579,15280],"class_list":["post-27050","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-antwerp","tag-antwerp","tag-belgium","tag-dimitri-vegas","tag-lucky-stride-running-club","tag-review-slombardo","tag-running","tag-tomorrowland","tag-zone-5"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@be\/116876862221378095","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27050","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27050"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27050\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27051"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27050"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27050"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27050"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
