Galaxy Run 2 Ho Chi Minh City 2026

Galaxy Run 2 returns on Sunday 22 November 2026, bringing runners together on Tan Trao Street in Tan My ward, Phu My Hung, Ho Chi Minh City. Samsung is the event owner, with VnExpress Marathon/FPT Online involved in event operations. Organisers expect approximately 8,000 runners; this is a forecast, not an actual entry count.

Venue and programme

• Race day: Sunday 22 November 2026.
• Start and finish: Tan Trao Street, Tan My ward, Ho Chi Minh City.
• Distances: 5K, 10K and 21K. This is the first Galaxy Run edition to include a half marathon.
• Race-kit distribution and expo: Saturday 21 November at Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center (SECC) in Phu My Hung. The organiser has not published verified daily pickup hours.
• Flag-offs: Race-specific times are still unconfirmed. The stored midnight start is a date-only placeholder, not a published starting time.

Registration deadline discrepancy — checked 4 November 2026

The official Galaxy Run 2 individual-registration checkout advertises a single sales phase from 26 October to 11 November 2026, with listed entry fees of VND 199,000 (5K), 299,000 (10K) and 399,000 (21K). The organiser-linked VnExpress report published 30 October instead states registration from 27 October through the end of 12 November, subject to early sell-out. The two official channels conflict by one day. For safety, the ARC registration-deadline field follows the earlier 11 November checkout date, with no invented closing hour. Runners should register before that date if possible and verify actual category availability at checkout. The listed fee is not a guarantee that a bib is still available.

The race is part of the Samsung Galaxy Festival and includes community activities alongside the races. After registering, participants should check confirmation messages and complete the applicable liability waiver, and monitor the organiser's official event page for final race instructions.
