Star Wars Run Singapore returns for its 2018 edition on Saturday, 5 May 2018 with new race elements and a new event venue.
Last year’s inaugural Star Wars Run saw the participation of 15,000 runners. It was held together with a carnival at Gardens by the Bay. It was flagged-off at the event space beside Marina Bay Sands.

This year, Star Wars Run 2018 will be held at the F1 Pit Building and the Marina Bay area. The themed run is presented by The Walt Disney Company Southeast Asia and Singapore race organiser Esprimo.
Star Wars Run 2018 will coincide with a Star Wars Festival being held on May the 4th – a date that fans of the movies franchise know as Star Wars Day because it sounds like the phrase, “May the Force Be with You”.
