Following the success of an inaugural event last year, Run To Rave – a new event blending fun, fitness and fundraising – is set to return to the Cardiff Bay barrage on Saturday April 5.
In June 2024, open air street food venue Tiger Yard hosted their first ever Run To Rave event. Starting with a 5km fun-run around the Cardiff Bay barrage, participants then headed to Tiger Yard for music from Tiger Yard’s in-house DJs.
April's event – moved from September 14 2024 – will see Tiger Yard's resident traders serving street food.
Run to Rave tickets are priced at £10, and a portion of each ticket sale is donated to Calon Hearts, a charity dedicated to supporting heart health initiatives.
The first event raised more than £2,000, and organisers are keen to repeat this success.
Sharon Owen, Charity Director at Calon Hearts, said:
“We are delighted and honoured that Tiger Yard has chosen to support Calon Hearts yet again as their charity partner for Run To Rave. All money raised will go towards part-funding mobile heart screening sessions and supply of defibrillators throughout Wales.”
