Running from November 1 to 30, this year's city-wide initiative is set to be the biggest and most community-focused version yet.

GET HYROX RACE READY AT GYMNATION

Launched in 2017 by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, DFC transforms Dubai into a massive fitness playground, with a record 2.7 million people participating last year.

The theme for 2025, 'Find Your Challenge,' encourages residents and visitors of all ages and abilities to discover new and enjoyable ways to stay active.

TRY BOLLYNATION AT GYMNATION

This year’s event also aligns with the UAE's 'Year of Community,' aiming to strengthen social connections through the shared experience of movement.

Signature events are making a return, including the highly anticipated Dubai Ride on November 2 and Dubai Run on November 23.

These flagship events will once again turn Sheikh Zayed Road and Downtown Dubai into iconic tracks for thousands of cyclists and runners.

VINYASA YOGA CLASSES AT GYMNATION

The challenge will also feature the popular Dubai Stand Up Paddle and the first-ever Dubai Yoga event.

In addition, participants can access three free Fitness Villages, 25 community fitness hubs, and thousands of complimentary classes and activities across the city, making it easier than ever for everyone to get involved.
