Excitement builds for Berlin

Look forward to the opening ceremony, valuable preparation tips, and plenty of highlights to accompany you on your journey to Berlin.

Alongside world record holder Sabastian Sawe, world record holder Tigst Assefa, defending champion Rosemary Wanjiru and Germany’s Esther Pfeiffer, further top stars have now been added to the start list. Want to experience it up close? Then join us for the Opening Ceremony at Brandenburg Gate (Friday 25 September from 6.15 pm).

The countdown is on! We are just 5 weeks away from race day, but there is still plenty of time to join our #roadtoberlin campaign across Instagram, TikTok, and our website. Catch weekly training challenges, plus bi-weekly mental and physical deep-dives with our host Laura in “Running the Facts – Marathon Edition”.

As official headphone partner of the BMW BERLIN-MARATHON, Shokz supports you every step of the way toward your next goal. Discover the Race Approved Headphones – designed for open-ear comfort, a secure fit, and every kilometer to the finish line!

Whether as a warm-up or your first run: the day before the BMW BERLIN-MARATHON, join the GENERALI 5K and experience the final kilometers of the official course up close with your traveling fans. Feel the goosebumps at the Brandenburg Gate and celebrate an unforgettable finish in the official BMW BERLIN-MARATHON finish area.

All members of the ERDINGER Active Team can look forward to the big day with ease. In the team lounge at the MARATHON EXPO by BRITA, they’ll have the chance to relax away from the hustle and bustle of the expo, chat with each other, and win a race entry for 2027 at the 3l-glass lifting challenge. During the raceday, an exclusive service area will also be available to them right near the start and finish lines.
