Padma Run Bandung 2026 Returns Oct. 4 with Charity Focus

Padma Run Bandung 2026 is set for Sunday, Oct. 4, with the theme #LaceUpForChange. The annual running event, organized by the Padma Hotels group, combines 5K and 10K races with a corporate social responsibility initiative.

Part of each registration fee goes to Sekolah Pendidikan Luar Biasa (SPLB) Anak dengan Hambatan Intelektual (Tunagrahita) in Cipaganti, Bandung. The school serves children with intellectual disabilities. Proceeds support educational programs and developmental activities.

"The hills and elevation changes along the course symbolize life's journey, filled with ups and downs that test our resilience and determination," said Desiree Merlina, Race Director and Corporate Director of Marketing Communications at Padma Hotels. "Together, every step can create meaningful change."
