Vienna City Marathon

The Vienna City Marathon weekend 18–19 April 2026 is one of the best ways to experience Vienna “in motion”: big-city energy, music along the course and a route that takes you past iconic landmarks before finishing right by the Burgtheater on the Ringstraße. The main Sunday races start from Wagramer Straße / Reichsbrücke in multiple waves from 9:00, with a festival-like atmosphere on course and at the finish area.

What participants should know: plan logistics early - bib pick-up happens at the event expo and there’s a set time window for wardrobe/bag drop at the start area. Expect a professionally organized road race setup with official measurement/label status, split points, live tracking, medical support and lots of spectator “cheering zones” that make the kilometers feel shorter.

If you’re choosing between options across the weekend, keep in mind that some categories can sell out far in advance, so it’s smart to check availability early and not leave registration to the last moment.
