Following the successful RedRun debut in Indonesia earlier this year, which saw participants from 40 countries racing through Bali’s scenic routes, AirAsia is now turning the spotlight to Penang, its second largest hub in Peninsular Malaysia, known for its vibrant heritage, rich culinary scene, and thriving creative economy.
The RedRun Penang will take place on Sunday, 28 September 2025 at Gurney Plaza, inviting thousands of participants from across the region to join in three race categories: 3KM, 5KM, and 10KM. Registration for the RedRun is now open here until 18 August 2025.
YB Tuan Wong Hon Wai, Penang State EXCO for Tourism and Creative Economy said: “This meaningful community event offers a unique platform to bring people together and foster deeper cultural appreciation. We are pleased to see AirAsia connecting communities not only through air travel but also through engaging on-ground events like RedRun. We encourage Penangites to take part and be part of the excitement.”
Dato’ Captain Fareh Mazputra, CEO of AirAsia Malaysia said: “RedRun is more than just a run, it is a regional movement to celebrate the spirit of travel, local culture and togetherness. After a great reception in Indonesia, we are proud to bring the next edition to Penang, a city that represents the heart of our operations and our commitment to community. We are also excited to roll out our AirAsia Festival at Gurney Plaza this month, adding even more reasons to visit the Pearl of the Orient.”
Penang has long been one of AirAsia’s top-performing leisure destinations, with direct connectivity to 12 domestic and international cities, including Kuching, Kota Kinabalu, Singapore, Jakarta, Ho Chi Minh City, Medan and Shenzhen. As one of its five major hubs in Malaysia, Penang stands out as a top destination, especially for tourists from Indonesia, China and Singapore.
