To make night-time mobility safer and more accessible, Uber has joined hands with Nike for the Nike After Dark Tour 2025 in Mumbai. As the official ride partner, Uber will provide trusted transport options to support the city’s first-ever large-scale night run. Focused on empowering female runners, this collaboration highlights safety, mobility, and the freedom for women to own their time without fear.

The Nike After Dark Tour 2025 promises to be the biggest 10K night run India has ever seen. Nike has designed this one-of-a-kind event to unite female runners in a celebration of strength, confidence, and community. The event aims to inspire women to reclaim the night through fitness and togetherness.
Uber’s role as the official ride partner goes beyond mere convenience. It adds a crucial layer of security to the event, offering women a trusted way to arrive and return safely. Whether participants are heading to the race or attending the post-run celebration, Uber will be available throughout.

This partnership also addresses a real concern. A recent Uber survey showed that 85% of women in Indian metros have either skipped or cancelled evening plans due to safety concerns or lack of transport. These statistics highlight the need for dependable night-time mobility solutions.

Uber continues to invest in technologies that enhance rider safety. Some of the most trusted features among women include live GPS tracking, the emergency SOS button, and verified driver profiles. According to the same survey, 70.8% of women named GPS tracking as the most important safety tool during night rides.
These features give women more confidence to step out after dark — whether for work, socialising, or fitness activities like the Nike After Dark Tour 2025. Uber’s commitment to innovation ensures that safety remains a top priority while making urban travel seamless and reliable.

In Uber’s words, mobility must meet women where they are — and this partnership proves they’re walking (or running) the talk.
Mobility That Empowers Beyond The Event
The benefits of safe mobility extend far beyond race day. A study by Oxford Economics found that 4 in 10 working women said ride-hailing helped them join the workforce. Furthermore, 75% said safety is the top reason they choose such services.
Additionally, 88% of Uber users said ride-hailing enabled them to pursue more nighttime opportunities in fitness, work, and leisure. Reliable transport plays a vital role in how women experience freedom in cities.
Uber’s Shiva Shailendran, Director, Consumer & Growth, Uber India and South Asia, stated, “Women shouldn’t have to plan their lives around safety. They deserve to move freely, on their terms. With Nike, we’re proud to make the night feel more accessible.”

Nike India’s GM, Tarundeep Singh, echoed this sentiment. “The Nike After Dark Tour 2025 is about more than running — it’s about connection, celebration, and bringing women to the forefront,” he said.
A Movement Towards Inclusive Nights
The Nike After Dark Tour 2025 is more than a race — it’s a movement. It acknowledges the challenges women face and addresses them through thoughtful partnerships and actionable solutions. As women continue to take control of their time, initiatives like this help pave the way for a safer and more inclusive urban lifestyle.
Together, Nike and Uber are sending a strong message — women belong everywhere, even after dark.
