The organizers previously awarded 1,000 early slots through a minigame on 9/5, based on eligible, high-quality social media posts.

As in the previous year, children will run almost 1 km, overcoming various obstacles such as ball pits and inflatable houses. Accompanying the 2,000 children this year are famous key opinion leaders (KOLs) such as Candy Ngoc Ha, Mike Den, Yen "Noi com dien", the artistic ball-juggling team of Do Kim Phuc and Minh Nhat, plus a special guest to be revealed closer to the race day.

Race kits, including shirts and caps categorized by age, will be distributed on 18/7 at the Tien Son Sports Palace. All finishers will receive medals, and those achieving good results will receive additional incentive prizes.

Besides the main race, the Kun Marathon Danang also offers exciting side activities such as Kun thach truot (Kun stone sliding), minigames with prizes, and meet-and-greets with guest artists.

The Kun Marathon is a children's race within the VnExpress Marathon framework, previously held in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Hue, Ha Long, Nha Trang, and Hai Phong, attracting thousands of children each season. The event often features celebrities such as People's Artist Xuan Bac, Truong Giang, Long Chun - Long Be, Boi Boi, and Ngan Chi.
