Marathon côte Indigo - Fleury 2027

Marathon Côte Indigo is a spring race weekend on France’s Mediterranean coast, based around Saint-Pierre-la-Mer and Fleury-d’Aude. It offers a full marathon, half marathon, 10 km, 5 km, Nordic walking, relay racing, and children’s races, accommodating participants from marathon runners to families and walkers. Participation has grown quickly, from over 2,000 runners at the first edition to more than 4,000 registrations by the third, with a recent edition drawing about 4,300 people. The routes are set between the Mediterranean Sea and the Massif de la Clape, featuring beaches, vineyards, garrigue, and a section along the local wine route. Fanfares and bandas play on the course, giving the event a distinct southern French race-day atmosphere rather than a quiet road run. The 5 km also has a charity component: its proceeds go to the Arpan refuge in Grand Narbonne, which received EUR4,200 from one edition. Children have their own free but mandatory races, split by age groups, while the Marathon Village is set up on Boulevard des Embruns in Saint-Pierre-la-Mer.
