Whether you’re a fitness enthusiast, a dance aficionado, or simply looking for a unique way to celebrate the longest day of the year – mark your calendar for Saturday June 22nd when Tiger Yard will play host to a fusion of fitness and fun that is bound to get hearts racing and feet moving.

Run To Rave will kick off at 9am with a 5km fun-run around the picturesque Cardiff Bay barrage, offering participants the chance to soak in the stunning views while breaking a sweat. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just starting out, this run welcomes all ages and abilities.

Following the run, from 10am to 12pm Tiger Yard will transform into a vibrant dance haven; runners can groove to their favourite dance classics spun by Tiger Yard’s in-house DJs, the perfect way to let loose with friends and fellow participants.

And if all that effort has kick-started an appetite, Tiger Yard’s resident traders (Terry’s Tacos, Fire & Flank, Meating Point and Dirty Bird) will be firing up the grills from noon, ready to offer an array of street food options, from smashed beef tacos to halloumi souvlaki, and crispy fried chicken with blue cheese sauce.The bar will also be open for anyone who wants to stay on and enjoy a drink in the summer sunshine.
