DECATHLON Night Run Budapest

The DECATHLON Night Run Budapest, also known as Running Night, is a night-time race in Budapest on 26 June 2027 offering a half marathon (21.1 km) at 21:00 and a 10 km at 19:00. The half marathon can be run solo, as a duo or as a trio, with the trio relay split into legs of 7.3, 7.6 and 6.2 km, while the 10 km is billed as running “in the Light”.

Every race follows a fully tarmacked, traffic-free route through Heroes' Square, whose statues honour the leaders of the seven founding tribes of Hungary, and along Andrássy Avenue, built in 1872 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2002, before crossing central Budapest. Elevation change is minimal, with a maximum of 35 metres, and street lighting keeps the course well lit throughout.

Refreshment stations are set up every 3 km, and the finish area offers a bag drop and medical support. Every finisher receives a medal, and the certified course delivers an official result: it is the only night-time half marathon in the city run on fully closed roads.
