Athens Half Marathon 2025

In our corner of the world, everything is set for the most anticipated spring running event: The 13th Athens Half Marathon 2025. It’s the day Athens transforms into a vibrant running circuit, where ancient streets become race tracks and historic monuments turn into cheering stations. This isn’t just a race; it’s Athens’ biggest spring running event—on running shoes—with the Acropolis standing proudly in the distance.

Whether you're chasing a personal best, planning a family adventure, or simply soaking up the city’s infectious energy, there’s something for everyone. Passionate runners can take on the half marathon’s new and improved route, while beginners can set their sights on the 5K OPAP race. And don’t miss the heartwarming Family Run, where parents and children create lasting memories together, starting and finishing in front of the Hellenic Parliament.

Prefer to cheer from the sidelines? Athens offers spectacular viewing spots at some of its most iconic landmarks. Witness runners passing the majestic Panathenaic Stadium, feel their determination at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and soak in the energy as they weave through the historic centre, surrounded by the city's cultural treasures.
