Diplo Teams Up with Bilt for July Rent Day

The Grammy-Winning Artist, Producer, and DJ Brings Rent Free™, and Exclusive Run Club Access to Bilt Members

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bilt, the membership that connects where you live with the places you love, today announced a partnership with Grammy-winning artist, producer, and DJ Diplo as the featured guest for July Rent Day. The collaboration puts Diplo at the center of Bilt's monthly Rent Free™ game show, where the better he does, the more Bilt Members win free rent.

Now in its third season, Diplo's Run Club has grown from two sold-out debut events in Seattle and San Francisco into one of the country's most distinctive live experiences: drawing over 100,000 runners in its second season alone, with last year's New York stop ranking among the 10 largest 5Ks in the United States.

Each event takes runners on a 5K through iconic city landmarks, followed by a mini music festival headlined by Diplo himself. The series was born from a simple moment of inspiration: after finishing the Miami Half Marathon, Diplo wandered into a club still buzzing from the night before and found runners and dancers sharing the same energy. He's been chasing that combination ever since.

Bilt Members get exclusive access to Diplo's Run Club tickets across seven cities this season: Denver (July 12), Philadelphia (July 18), Chicago (October 3), San Francisco (October 18), New York (October 24), Los Angeles (November 8), and San Diego (November 21). In this special edition of Bilt's monthly game show, Rent Free^TM, the top scorers win free rent of up to $2,500.

"Diplo has built something that genuinely brings communities together, with tens of thousands of people showing up in their cities to run, to celebrate, and be part of something," said Ankur Jain, Founder and CEO of Bilt. "That energy of people flooding the streets of their city together, that's the neighborhood at its best. That's Bilt. We’re thrilled that Diplo is with us to shape that this Rent Day.”

"Diplo’s Run Club has always been about showing up somewhere and making it feel like yours for a day. Running through it, celebrating in it, all of it," said Diplo. "Bilt gets that. That's exactly what they do for people every month."
