About the Event

Experience the electric energy of a night-time urban adventure at the Urban Trail de Montpellier on Saturday, 10th January 2026. This 9th edition transforms the historic heart of Montpellier into a spectacular nocturnal playground, offering a choice of a festive 6km or a more challenging 12km route that winds through illuminated monuments, secret passages, and iconic squares. With a renewed course and an expected 6,000 runners, this event is a unique blend of sport, urban exploration, and communal celebration, all for a cause as it partners with Les Restos du Cœur.

Join the vibrant, after-dark crowd on January 10th for a run where the city itself is the star, and every turn reveals a new architectural wonder. More than a race, it's a sensory journey through the city's soul, complete with a lively village atmosphere, a spirit of solidarity, and an unforgettable party vibe that lights up the winter night.

About Montpellier

Montpellier is the principal city in the Languedoc-Roussillon region in southwest France. It's been the one of the fastest growing cities in France since the 1990s. As a result, it has very modern districts on the outskirts that are in stark contrast to the old winding roads of the city centre. The town is home to a lot of students due to the presence of the University of Montpellier which has the oldest medical school in Europe, and, as such, Montpellier has a very young feel to it.
