About the Event

Run.Walk.Rave

The Detroit Techno 5K is where endurance meets the underground. Held at the legendary Historic Fort Wayne, this race combines the raw energy of Detroit’s techno roots with the grit of a true 5K challenge. It’s not just a race – it’s an experience.

The course takes you through the sprawling grounds of Historic Fort Wayne, offering stunning views of the Detroit River alongside the industrial edge that defines our city. The finish line is your gateway to an unforgettable afterparty: a live DJ set that transforms the fort into an open-air rave. Cross the line, catch your breath, and lose yourself in the music with a crowd that knows how to move.
