Diplo Announces 5K Run Club
Have you ever completed a 5K run, but felt that your afterparty options were slim once you crossed the finish line? Well, Diplo did — now, he’s unrolling a new series of 5K runs to make sure that even after the race finishes, the fun keeps going. Dubbed Diplo’s Run Club, the series will host its first events this fall.
Specifically, Diplo’s Run Club will head to San Francisco on September 8th, 2024, followed by a second event in Seattle on September 14th. At both events, there will be a 5K run followed by “finish line sets” by Diplo and friends. The event’s description features the apt send-off: “We run hard with our friends and party even harder after. Are you in?”
Tickets for both the San Francisco and Seattle runs are available now on RunSignup, offering standard tickets, as well as VIP, virtual, and bundle options. Get tickets for San Francisco here and Seattle here. Beyond September, “more dates will be announced soon.”

In a statement, Diplo explained that in recent years he’s “doubled down on all things health and wellness, and running has been a big part of that.” Last year, he made headlines when he ran the Los Angeles Marathon on LSD. Now, though, he’s looking forward to devoting more time and attention to physical activity with Diplo’s Run Club.
“I’m excited to finally get to combine two of my favorite things in one event: fitness and DJing,” he said, before ensuring prospective runners that the event will be inclusive to all experience levels. “A 5K may be intimidating to some but Diplo’s Run Club is for everyone and meant to be a good time for all — both seasoned runners or anyone just starting their running journey. I’m looking forward to running and partying with everyone at the inaugural events in SF and Seattle this fall!”
In the meantime, if you’d rather just see a Diplo set without breaking a sweat first, he has plenty of dates coming up, including performances at Bonnaroo and Stagecoach. Check out his upcoming dates, and grab tickets here.
