Dive into an unforgettable evening of running and revelry along the banks of Lyon’s Saône River. The Lut by Night invites you to experience this vibrant city under starlit skies, where every step feels like dancing on pavement. As night falls in November, temperatures may dip but your energy will soar after a thorough warm-up. This 11th edition offers three distances—10 km, 20 km, and 30 km—all raced against the clock for those who want to push their limits. For those looking to enjoy the atmosphere without the pressure of timing, there's also an untimed 10 km option. The event kicks off on the right bank of the Saône River, where you’ll weave through iconic streets like Place Saint-Jean and rue Tramassac. The highlight is undoubtedly reaching the hilltop of Fourvière, with its cobbled lanes inviting moonlit jaunts. Starting at the Roman Theatre in Fourvière, runners will feel the excitement building as they navigate this historic setting under headlamps. The route culminates near the Basilica of Notre-Dame-de-Fourvière, where cheering crowds await to celebrate your achievement with a stunning view over Lyon. After crossing the finish line, you’ll find yourself in one of France’s culinary capitals, ready to indulge in local delicacies that will soothe tired muscles. From pâté-croute and Saint-Marcellin cheese to Lyon's famous chocolate marzipan filled with Curaçao ganache, your palate is treated as much as your body gets a well-deserved rest. Join the Lut by Night for an evening of magic, movement, and memorable moments in one of France’s most charming cities.

About Lyon
Learn more about the host city, Lyon.
Lyon is the capital of the French administrative region of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. A city of half a million, Lyon alone is the country's third-largest city, but its metropolitan area is only second in population to Paris. Lyon is mostly known as the gastronomic epicentre of France, with one of the highest concentrations of restaurants per capita in the country. Lyon was a Roman provincial capital and thus has extensive Roman ruins. Architecture in old Lyon ranges from 12th century to modern, and is primarily influenced by its position in the Renaissance as a centre of silk production.
