Runrise

Dive into an unforgettable running experience at the inaugural Runrise festival in Noyarey, Isère. Set for 2026, this unique event promises to energize and entertain from dawn till dusk.
The day kicks off early with bib pickup at 6:45 a.m., setting the stage for a morning filled with excitement. At precisely 8:00 a.m., runners will take to the streets for a 5 km race that’s anything but ordinary. This isn't just any run; participants wear headphones connected to those of all competitors, allowing everyone to synchronize their pace and rhythm as they listen to an exclusive DJ set. The vibrant beats keep spirits high throughout this spirited event.
Once you've crossed the finish line, refuel with a hearty breakfast spread featuring pastries, coffee, and fresh fruit juice—perfect for recharging after your morning exertions. But there's more in store: following the race is a Pilates class designed to deepen muscle engagement and introduce runners to a new form of exercise that challenges flexibility and stamina.
Capture memories at the on-site photo booth before heading out into Noyarey’s scenic landscapes. Explore natural wonders like the Cuves de Sassenage, where an underground river emerges from rugged cliffs, or climb up to Fort du Saint-Eynard for panoramic views over surrounding peaks. For those who prefer a more urban setting, Grenoble offers its legendary Bastille cable car and riverside paths along the Isère.
Fuel your adventure with local cuisine at traditional restaurants featuring regional specialties such as Grenoble walnuts, gratin dauphinois, and Bleu du Vercors-Sassenage cheese. These culinary delights provide a perfect complement to an active day of running and exploring.
Join us in Noyarey for Runrise 2026, where the morning’s festivities culminate in lasting memories and renewed motivation for future adventures. Don’t forget to learn the lyrics to this year's hit: "Last Night Morning A DJ Saved My Life!"
