Marathon International Lanzarote 2026

The Marathon International Lanzarote is a December running event held on Lanzarote in the Canary Islands, typically with race-day temperatures around 21ºC. Participants can select from a 10 km, half marathon, or full marathon, accommodating beginners, club athletes, and seasoned marathoners. This event stands as one of Lanzarote’s significant running fixtures and ranks among the final races of the European calendar year. The course traces the island’s east coast, offering participants a seaside route instead of a typical city-centre circuit. The event weekend also features a 5 km Santa Claus race and children’s races held two days prior to the main marathon, enhancing its family appeal compared to a single-distance road race. Organizers suggest using the Lanzarote Intercity Bus service during the event period to reduce vehicle use and decrease the race’s carbon footprint.
