From the breezy Jeddah Waterfront to the scenic trails of Wadi Namar in Riyadh, and finally the vibrant Khobar Corniche, Summer Splash 2025 made waves across the Kingdom with three unforgettable weekends of movement, laughter, and water-soaked fun.
This year’s edition, held on July 4th in Jeddah, July 11th in Riyadh, and July 18th in Khobar, brought together more than 2,000 enthusiastic participants of all ages and backgrounds. Whether running competitively or just showing up for some splashy summer excitement, each runner added a burst of energy to the coast-to-coast journey.
Each city featured two race categories — a 1KM fun run for kids and a 5KM course for adults — where finishers were cheered on with high fives, water guns, and an atmosphere bursting with color and celebration. At the finish line, participants were greeted with custom medals, refreshing vibes, and plenty of smiles. Water stations and splash zones kept everyone cool, while families and friends turned each venue into a festival of fitness and fun.
In the spirit of healthy competition, the top three finishers in each category and city were recognized for their achievement. From speedy kids to strong adult runners, we witnessed inspiring performances across the board. Check out the full list of top 3 winners across all cities and distances now available on our website

Attending the Summer Splash 2025 in Khobar was one of the best breaks I had during a busy semester. The event's energy and fun atmosphere gave me the mental reset I needed. I was balancing deadlines and used a college assignment service to help manage my workload while I trained for the 5KM run. It all worked out perfectly. I crossed the finish line with a smile, and my grades stayed on track.
I recently attended the Summer Splash 2025 event in Khobar, and it was an incredible experience filled with energy, community spirit, and just pure fun. The 5KM run really pushed my limits, especially dealing with chronic joint discomfort. But what helped me recover quickly and feel ready again was a chronic pain massage session afterward. It worked wonders in easing muscle tension and stiffness. Events like these remind me how important it is to stay active and care for our bodies with proper recovery methods like massage therapy.
