The beat of the city is about to get louder as the AIA Rock ’n’ Roll Running Series Manila 2025 gears up to transform the capital into one massive fitness-meets-festival celebration. This year, AIA Philippines takes center stage as the Title Sponsor, bringing a fresh wave of wellness, motivation, and community spirit to every kilometer of the race.
AIA’s presence elevates this year’s signature distances, with the 10KM and 1KM Kids events now officially the AIA 10KM and AIA 1KM Kids. Celebrity ambassadors Solenn Heussaff and Wil Dasovich will join thousands of runners on the AIA 10KM route, alongside well-loved creators and personalities who aim to spark positivity and encourage runners throughout the course.
For AIA Philippines Chief Marketing Officer Melissa Henson, the race is more than just a run—it’s a joyful reminder that health can be fun and uncomplicated. She shared that AIA hopes to make wellness feel accessible, social, and something people genuinely look forward to, rather than a chore.
On race day, AIA Philippines will be everywhere—from the high-energy warm-up sessions to the final moments at the finish festival. Runners can expect AIA’s signature Hot Zones scattered throughout the route, each offering themed surprises, music-driven motivation, small rewards, and photo-ready spots to capture unforgettable moments. Every stretch of the race will pulse with Manila’s vibrant culture through spirited performances and creative on-ground entertainment.
After crossing the finish line, participants can unwind at the AIA Rethink Healthy Zone, a dedicated recovery area offering refreshments, simple wellness activities, photo ops, and partner booths. MediCard Philippines, AIA’s healthcare arm, will also be onsite to provide light health checks and post-run perks.
The celebration won’t stop when the running does. The Itchyworms, Gracenote, Basti Artadi, and DJ Marc Marasigan are set to take the stage, bringing a powerful close to a day filled with movement, music, and Manila’s signature festival vibe.
Henson emphasized that events like these show how transformative it can be when communities come together. For AIA, supporting the run is part of helping Filipinos live healthier, longer, and better lives in ways that feel inspiring and inclusive.
The AIA Rock ’n’ Roll Running Series Manila is happening on Saturday, 29 November 2025, organized locally by Sunrise Events Inc. Registration details and race updates are available on AIA Philippines’ official digital channels.
