About

The Ljubljanski Marathon is the biggest running event in Slovenia, held every October in the centre of the capital, Ljubljana. On 18 October 2026 the marathon and half marathon start at 9am, while the Garmin 10 km Run sets off at 8am. Since 1996 it has grown into an internationally recognised race, with more than 21,000 runners from over 60 countries.

The main event, the Heineken 0.0 marathon, is run on a flat, single-loop course that is ideal for fast times, starting on Slovenska cesta and finishing on Kongresni trg. Alongside the marathon there are a half marathon, a 10 km, a 5 km and youth events such as a children's race and school races, making it a true celebration for the whole community.
