Annual Tunnel to Towers 5K Event Set for September 29th

Country Star Tyler Hubbard to Headline Tunnel to Towers 5K Run & Walk NYC Post-Run Concert

Sunday, September 29, 2024

On Sunday, September 29th, the 23rd annual Tunnel to Towers 5K Run & Walk NYC will take place, honoring the memory of those lost on 9/11 and in subsequent years. Nearly 40,000 participants are expected to join the event, which retraces the final steps of firefighter Stephen Siller from the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel to the Twin Towers.

Country music sensation Tyler Hubbard will headline the post-run concert on Vesey Street. Hubbard, known for his work with Florida Georgia Line and his hit solo singles like “5 Foot 9” and “Dancin’ in the Country,” will bring his energy and passion for music to the event.

“We are excited to have Tyler Hubbard join us,” said Frank Siller, Chairman & CEO of the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. “His music aligns with our mission to honor those lost on 9/11.”

The Tunnel to Towers Foundation raises funds to support Gold Star and fallen first responder families with young children, build specially adapted smart homes for catastrophically injured veterans and first responders, eradicate veteran homelessness, and help America Never Forget September 11, 2001.

Registration for the 5K is now open at T2T.org.

The event is finished.
