Calling all Nike After Dark Tour LA Runners!
We know you’re ready, so don’t let the race day jitters creep up on you. Skip the stress and pull up early to the JD Sports Run Ready Station at Hollywood Park.
From 12pm-5pm, just blocks away from the starting line, join us and claim your confidence before you hit the course. Because we all know that in order to run good… you gotta look good and feel good first.
We’ll have a Glam Bar to get your look right – we’re talking hair braiding (by appointment only), and spaces for you to create your own race day look with glitter freckles, temporary tattoos, hair accessories, and more.
Hang out and vibe with us – we’ll have music to get your mind right along with pre-race fuel, hydration, and spaces to kick your legs up.
Need the perfect post-race fit? You’ll have the chance to shop the exclusive Nike After Dark Tour Capsule Collection, along with tons of other Nike styles to keep you feeling your best. The first 100 people to make in-store purchases will receive an exclusive gift – a perfect way to celebrate the day.
Once you’re feeling race ready, make sure to get your pre-race portrait or group photo with your besties before 13.1 miles does it’s thing.
And don’t forget- when you come hang with us, you and your girls will have an exclusive opportunity to win the Ultimate Recovery Day – we’re talking mani, pedis, massages, and facials. The full celebration your body deserves after running 13.1 miles. Your opportunity to enter will only take place in-person at the Run Ready Station!

Q: What if I park in a different lot? A: Some parking lots may be closed before 3pm, so parking at Structure 4 is a safe bet! If you park in a different lot, we are not responsible for any parking fees accrued.
Q: Do I need to RSVP? A: Yes – RSVP is required to access the Run Ready Station. Make sure you’ve signed up and received a confirmation. If you have a confirmed “going” RSVP, you’re good to go and will have first access to the space. If you have a “waitlist” RSVP, you will have first come, first serve access to the event.
Q: What if I’m on the waitlist? A: No worries. We’ll be letting in people on the waitlist first come first serve, as long as capacity is available. There might be a line, so come early to avoid the wait!
Q: What time should I arrive? A: The event runs from 12PM–4:30PM on Saturday, June 7. We recommend coming early, especially if you would like to have a Glam Bar appointment or want to snag exclusive giveaways, while supplies last. At 4:30pm, we will send off all runners to the After Dark Tour starting line!
Q: What’s at the Glam Bar, and how do I get a spot? A: The Glam Bar will offer a preset menu with hairstylists doing braids, space buns, and updo’s to get you feeling race ready! The Glam Bar is first come, first serve, and will operate in 15 minute increments per seating. When you come to the Glam Bar, you’ll sign in, then you’ll be given a pager which will let you know when a chair is available for you to get your hair done. It’s that easy! When your pager goes off, that means it’s your turn to get Glammed Up.
Q: How should I show up at the Glam Bar? A: Make sure your hair is clean and as tangle-free as you can get it. Each chair spot is about 10-15 mins so coming as prepared as possible to your seating will help our stylists make your ‘do amazing!
Q: What if I don’t get a Glam Bar appointment? A: Don’t worry! Even without an appointment, we have a full *Glitz Bar* where you can do your own updo with all the same tools as the Glam Bar, like cute bobby pins, hair accessories that will light up the night, and more. We’ll also have face gems, glitter freckles, and body glitter to elevate your look, while supplies last.
