123-floor vertical marathon... Lotte Sky Run to be held next month

Lotte World Tower will begin recruiting 2,200 participants on March 11 for the "2026 Lotte World Tower Sky Run" scheduled for April 19. The Sky Run is Korea's highest vertical marathon, challenging runners to climb 2,917 stairs across 123 floors, reaching 555 meters.

This year, organizers added a raffle system alongside the existing first-come-first-served registration method. Details on participation and event information are available on the official Lotte World Tower website. The entry fee is 70,000 won.

First-come-first-served registration opens at 11 a.m. on March 11 and closes at 5 p.m. on March 12. Raffle registration runs from March 13 to 17 through the Lotte On Sky Run page.

The "Kids Sky Run," where one guardian and one child run together, will select 50 teams through a lottery on the Lotte On event page. There is no entry fee for this category.
