The Ooredoo Color Run is a five-kilometre run which is open solely for applicants over the age of six. For each kilometre during the run, participants will be rewarded with a burst of colour powder at the ‘Color station’.
As a non-timed event, runners may walk, jog or run to the finish line, where their efforts are celebrated with colour throws, finisher medals and a music show.
Personally would like to give a big thanks to @Pohthu @AhmedSinadh @MohamedAkxam @stagecoremv @OoredooMaldives for this chance to open Ooredoo Colour Run music festival! Hands down this was the best show I’ve played this year! Here’s more to come! pic.twitter.com/TO0NJkSbmG

As a new entry into the Color Run activities, Ooredoo introduced ‘Moodhu Ufaa’ (which loosely translates to ‘Ocean Fun’), involving events such as tug rope, a sand art competition, a bucket relay and a marble hunt.
Similar to previous instalments, Ooredoo celebrated the weekend festivities with a kite festival ‘Gudi Mahaasama’, which involves a kite crafting workshop and a competitive ‘Bols Race’.
