The scorching summers in Dubai are no justification for putting your fitness objectives on hold. Residents and guests may now put on their running shoes and participate in indoor mall races that promise enjoyment, exercise, and family time—all in air-conditioned comfort—thanks to Dubai Summer Surprises (DSS) 2025. Even in the warmest months of the year, these activities are a part of a citywide effort to promote health and wellbeing.
Timed indoor runs for people of all ages and fitness levels are being held in some of Dubai’s best malls, including Ibn Battuta Mall and Dubai Festival City. There is a distance and a location that work for everyone, whether you are an experienced marathon runner or a parent searching for a fun activity to do with the kids. Children compete in 500-meter races, while more experienced runners compete in 10-kilometer races. Under one roof, each participant receives a medal, and champions receive rewards.
Just go to PremierOnline.com or, depending on the location, MyRaceResult.com to register. A race bib, timing chip, and other fun extras like a T-shirt or souvenir bag are included in the starting price of AED 50. Every race is held early in the morning, before shopping centres open, so it’s a cool, collected, and peaceful experience.
The DSS indoor mall runs are transforming the conventional shopping area into a wellness centre with lively music, energised crowds, and even on-site hydration stations. So whether you’re chasing a personal best or just want a fun weekend plan, don’t miss out on one of the coolest summer events in Dubai.
