Zamalek 5K Run
, GENERAL INFO
Organised by The TriFactory, the Zamalek 5K Run marks the first-ever running event in support of the Zamalek Association for Development (ZAD). ZAD works tirelessly to maintain and improve Zamalek as a historical and residential district, focusing on three core pillars: Environment & Sustainability, Quality of Life, and Culture & Heritage.
The Association’s projects aim to see Zamalek become a greener, more livable neighborhood through initiatives that expand green spaces, improve pedestrian safety, and preserve its architectural and cultural heritage. More than just a fun run, the Zamalek 5K Run is an initiative designed to raise funds for these projects while also raising awareness of Zamalek’s unique urban environment, including rare trees, historical buildings, and riverside heritage gardens that runners will be able to see while running.
Participants will run a scenic 5K along Mamsha Ahl Misr, enjoying waterfront views of the Nile and its brand-new promenade while supporting a meaningful cause.
Every registration directly supports ZAD's ongoing efforts, helping expand its impact and bring future projects to life, making Zamalek a greener, safer, and more vibrant neighborhood for all.
