HOKA Global Running Day at Canada’s Wonderland
An Unforgettable Day of Movement, Music, and Magic
On June 4th, 2025, I had the incredible honour of soundtracking HOKA’s Global Running Day celebration at none other than the legendary Canada’s Wonderland—and let me tell you, it was everything.
From sunrise stretches to nighttime fireworks, this energy-packed event brought together runners, wellness lovers, and music fans for an unforgettable day of movement and motivation.
The Vibe: Curated by DJ Lissa Monet
Whether it was a pre run warm-up or post run wind-down, I had the decks covered. My mission? Keep the vibes high and the energy flowing. From classic feel-good anthems to hyped-up running tunes, I designed a live set that moved with the pace of the day—literally.
The Run: Through the Rides
What made this HOKA Global Running Day so special? Running through Canada’s Wonderland with roller coasters as your backdrop. Picture hundreds of participants running past Yukon Striker, Leviathan, and the Timberwolf Falls—all under the very dramatic Canadian sky - it poured really heavy just before the run. This wasn’t just a run, it was a full-on theme park takeover.
Community and Culture
There’s nothing more inspiring than seeing a diverse group of runners, performers, and creatives all come together to celebrate health and joy. The event featured interactive entertainment, including breakdance crews, wellness activations, and of course, a late-night dance floor under the stars.
The Finale: Fireworks + Feel-Good Frequencies
As the day closed, guests were treated to a firework show that lit up the night sky—set to the backdrop of a mini mix I created. There’s something magical about music, movement, and fireworks all colliding—and HOKA Global Running Day delivered that magic tenfold.
