Graz Marathon - Mc Donalds Family Day 2026

McDonald's Family Day is the child-and-family Saturday of the Graz Marathon in Graz, Austria, built around short youth races rather than the main marathon distance. The event sits inside the marathon's autumn weekend and gives children a race-day version of the bigger event, with bibs, start times, spectators, and the noise of a large city running festival. The program includes the Sparefroh Junior Marathon and the Sparefroh Bambini Sprint for young runners getting their first taste of organized racing. There is also a mascot run powered by CITYPARK, plus craft stations, face painting, and other children's activities around the races. Bib pickup is at Hervis in CITYPARK, which makes the day feel more like a family outing than a standard adult race expo.
