BMW BERLIN-MARATHON

The BMW Berlin Marathon is a 42.195-kilometer road race held annually in September, recognized as one of the world's largest marathons. It attracts a global field and significant entry demand, leading many participants to secure a bib through the lottery, charity entries, or official tour operators from over 50 partner nations. The course winds through the city, passing the Tiergarten, Berlin's expansive central park. Fast competition is central to the event's character, with organizers acknowledging the potential for world records. The participant field extends beyond elite athletes to include charity runners supporting organizations like Realbuzz, Stiftung RTL – Wir helfen Kindern, Children e.V., and WWF. Some charity entries, such as those for WWF, require a minimum fundraising amount of 890 euros. SCC EVENTS organizes the marathon, along with other significant races in Germany.
