Gothenburg Half Marathon

23 May 2026Gothenburg, 🇸🇪 Sweden

About this event

The Göteborgsvarvet is the world's largest half marathon, bringing 62,000 runners to Gothenburg's streets each May. The course weaves through the city and along its scenic waterfront, with live bands stationed throughout and crowds that reach 200,000 strong. A unique touch: personalized bibs mean spectators can cheer runners by name, creating an electric atmosphere that carries participants all the way to the finish. For those wanting a taste of the energy without the full distance, the Cityvarvet offers a 4.3km option with the same festival vibe.
