Opticolor, a leading Venezuelan company in visual health, announces the arrival of the 3rd edition of its emblematic 10K Race in Maracaibo, an event that is part of the sporting tradition of the Zulia capital and which this year celebrates the organization’s 27th anniversary, promoting and supporting both comprehensive health and well-being.

The health in motion event

The Opticolor 10K Race 2026 was born as a tribute to the city of Maracaibo, giving back with joy and sport for all the support shown to the company and brand. This year, more than 1,000 runners are expected to take part in a unique route designed to challenge professional athletes and motivate amateurs.

More than just a race, the event is envisioned as a “Health Fair,” featuring strategically placed entertainment points, live music, and activities for the whole family, guaranteeing a festive atmosphere from start to finish.

As we know, Maracaibo is the capital of Zulia State, located in northwestern Venezuela, and the second largest and most important city in the country. Known as “The Land of the Beloved Sun,” it stands out for its oil potential, its location on the shores of Lake Maracaibo, its attractive bridge, its distinctive gaita music culture, and the deep devotion its people have for the Virgin of the Rosary of Chiquinquirá, La Chinita.

Strategic alliance between Jagi and Opticolor

To enhance the experience and comfort of participants, this year a partnership and collaboration between Jagi Caps and Opticolor is being solidified. Thus, Jagi, a leading brand in style and dynamism, joins the wave of runners not only with brand presence but also by providing real value:

• Runner’s Kit: Many participants will receive an exclusive Jagi surprise in their kit.
• On-Route Activations: Presence at hydration stations and sensory experiences along the route.
• Awards: Special incentives for the winners, highlighting the value of perseverance.

Spotify announced the closure of its live music application Spotify Live because it considers that it “does not make sense as a standalone application” of the streaming music and podcast platform.

The company launched Spotify Live after renaming Greenroom in April 2022. Until then, this other one worked as a standalone application that allowed you to join live conversations about sports, music or culture and did not require an account in the streaming music service. .

Spotify Live, on the other hand, was not only available as a standalone application, but also within the start menu of the music streaming platform’s own application. So, this renowned app kept the functions of Greenroom and added new exclusive content.

The company has now decided to cancel this application, “after a period of experimentation and learning about how Spotify users interact with live audio“, as confirmed to Music Ally initially.

“We believe there is a future for live interactions between fans and creators in the Spotify ecosystem, however, based on our experience, it no longer makes sense as a standalone application,” the company said.

However, the company has also announced that it has seen “promising results” in the case of ‘listening parties’, that is, listening sessions with creators, and that it will continue to “explore to facilitate live interactions between artists and fans”.
