Dhaka witnessed an energetic start to the day as RYZE Presents Dhaka Morning Fest 2026 was held at Hatirjheel on January 10, bringing together runners, music lovers and cultural enthusiasts in a citywide celebration of health and community.

More than 550 runners took part in the event, reflecting growing interest in fitness and outdoor activities among Dhaka residents. The festival was organised by Brand Solution Ltd in association with Leaders Forum Bangladesh, with RYZE as the title sponsor.

The centrepiece of the programme was the 7.5-kilometre morning run, which saw participants from different age groups running along the Hatirjheel route. Live musical performances by Shawon Gaanwala and a kawali performance by Sufitan followed the run, creating a lively atmosphere at the venue.

The event also featured traditional breakfast items, including live pitha stalls, adding a cultural dimension to the programme and linking wellness with local food traditions.

RYZE, an AI-powered digital lifestyle brand, supported the initiative as part of its focus on promoting positive routines and an active lifestyle among young people.

Participants praised the organisation, atmosphere and variety of activities, with organisers saying the festival aimed to encourage a healthier morning culture and stronger community engagement in the capital.
