Bari Med Marathon 2027

The Bari Med Marathon guides runners through Bari's streets, alleys, bridges, and seafront. Bari, a Puglian port city, is often called Italy's gateway to the east. This is a road half marathon covering 21.097 km, with a 10 km Factory Run available for those seeking a shorter distance. The next edition is listed for late February, though recent editions have also taken place on a spring race weekend. The course integrates the city itself: old lanes, bridges, waterfront roads, monuments, and the sea are all part of the race route. Its Mediterranean theme is clear, with Bari presenting the event as a run connecting the peoples around a sea shaped by long cultural exchange. The organizers also link the weekend to sport, solidarity, sustainability, and environmental responsibility, giving the race a civic message alongside its finish line.
