Lappeenranta Half 2026 takes place on 22 August 2026 in Lappeenranta, Finland, with the event centre at Lappeenrannan Satamatori by Lake Saimaa. The programme includes a half marathon, a 10 km race and a children’s Hippo Mini Marathon.

The course is centred on the harbour area and follows the waterfront around Satamatori, Pikisaari and Myllysaari. For 2026, the route has been updated to use sections such as Ainonkatu, Kipparinkatu and Satamatie, with the half marathon run over three laps of approximately seven kilometres. The official race instructions state that both main race distances are officially measured.

This event suits runners who want a compact late-summer road race in eastern Finland rather than a large multi-day marathon weekend. The 10 km gives participants a shorter timed option, while the half marathon offers a flat, harbour-based route with a clear local identity and organisation by two long-standing Lappeenranta sports clubs.
