Spotify and Travis Barker are bringing 5K races to four cities this fall

Run Travis Run events merge music, community, and wellness inspiration.

Spotify and blink-182 drummer Travis Barker have partnered to host Run Travis Run 5K races in four U.S. cities this fall, combining high-energy music with community-driven fitness events.

Travis Barker’s wellness journey began after surviving a devastating plane crash in 2008. When doctors told him he might never walk or play drums the same way again, Barker turned to daily running as part of his recovery and proof that he could overcome their predictions.

Now Travis and Spotify have launched Run Travis Run, a race series designed to inspire others on their own physical, mental, and wellness journeys. The series will stop in four cities this fall:

  • September 20: Chicago
  • October 5: Palm Springs
  • October 18: Las Vegas
  • November 9: Santa Monica

These 5K events will merge Barker’s high-energy world with Spotify’s focus on helping fans find connection and community through music.
