Marriott Business Council Bali officially launched Road To Give 2026 today during a press conference held at Fairfield by Marriott Bali South Kuta, marking the start of its flagship annual charity initiative that continues to unite communities through wellness, purpose, and giving back. Organized by Marriott International associates under the Marriott Business Council Bali, this year’s event marks the 12th edition of Road To Give and will take place on Saturday, 17 October 2026 at Garuda Wisnu Kencana (GWK) Cultural Park.

Building on the success of previous years, Road To Give 2026 aims to welcome 4,000 participants comprising Marriott associates, guests, business partners, running communities, and members of the public. While participation remains an important milestone, this year’s focus is on delivering a high-quality race experience, enhanced race course management, and meaningful community engagement that reflects the spirit and purpose behind the event.

As part of Marriott International’s global Serve 360: Doing Good in Every Direction platform and the company’s “Be” People philosophy, Road To Give encourages associates and communities to be their best selves while making a positive difference in the lives of others.

This year’s event will once again support Bali Children Foundation and Solar Chapter, two organizations dedicated to improving access to education, clean water, and sustainable energy solutions in underserved communities. Funds raised through registrations, sponsorships, and donations will contribute directly to programs that help create brighter futures for communities in need.

For the second consecutive year, Garuda Wisnu Kencana (GWK) Cultural Park has been selected as the host venue for the Bali event. Set at an elevation of approximately 137 meters above sea level, GWK offers participants a unique race experience with scenic views and an iconic cultural backdrop. More than just a venue, GWK represents the values of unity, resilience, and cultural pride-making it a fitting location for an event that brings people together for a common purpose.

Road To Give 2026 will feature two categories:

• 5K Race Run for participants seeking a more competitive running experience.
• 2K Fun Run designed for families, children, and casual participants looking to enjoy an active
  morning together.

Registration is now open to the public with an entry fee of IDR 275,000 for the 5K Race Run and IDR 200,000 for the 2K Fun Run. All registered participants will receive an exclusive Road To Give 2026 event jersey, while 5K finishers will also be awarded a finisher medal in recognition of their achievement. Registration will remain open until 10 October 2026 or until all available slots have been filled.

In the lead-up to race day, Marriott Business Council Bali will also organize a series of community engagement initiatives, including shake out-run activities and awareness campaigns designed to encourage healthy lifestyles while promoting the charitable mission behind the event.

Supported by more than 30 Marriott Bonvoy properties across Bali, Lombok, and Labuan Bajo, Road To Give continues to demonstrate the power of collaboration among hospitality professionals, local communities, corporate partners, and charitable organizations.
