TotalEnergies Bilbao Night Running Fest

The Bilbao Night Running Fest guides participants through Bilbao, located in the Basque Country of northern Spain. This event features a marathon, a half marathon, and a 10k Pirate Race. The marathon holds RFEA approval and is officially listed on the federation calendar. It functions as a city-wide running festival, not just a single-distance competition, anticipating approximately 10,000 participants across all events. The course winds through Bilbao’s central streets, designed to capture the atmosphere of a night race rather than an early morning start. Athletes travel from five continents, and the competition includes both professional runners and the general running community. Numerous spectators fill the streets, contributing significantly to the event's standing as Vizcaya’s largest running festival and a prominent night race within Spain.
