The Belgrade Marathon is the largest, most massive and most important traditional sport event in Serbia.
The jubilean, 35th Belgrade Marathon will be held on Sunday, 15 May 2022, on the International Family Day, under the slogan “Friendship in the long run”.
Like all other events organized by the Belgrade Marathon, this one will be dedicated to extremely important and current social topics such as promoting the importance of physical activity, promoting the importance of environmental protection and the importance of helping and supporting people with disabilities, and their inclusion in regular flows of recreation, sports and life.
The first Belgrade Marathon was held in May 1988, which makes it one of the oldest international sport events in Serbia.
During its 35 years of existence, the Belgrade Marathon has been realized and developed successfully, even in extraordinary and extremely complex conditions, in times of social, economic and political crises and is the only sport event (and not only sport) that has retained its international status even in times of sanctions imposed on FR Yugoslavia by the international community.
By the decision of the Assembly of the City of Belgrade from 2003, the Belgrade Marathon was declared an event of special importance for the City of Belgrade.
Based on extensive agency research, the Belgrade Marathon is the second largest event in Belgrade in terms of size, importance and popularity in general, right after the Book Fair, and ahead of all other long-standing, prestigious sport and cultural events.
The Belgrade Marathon is also a multi-award winning event by the domestic and foreign professional public. With its organization, the Belgrade Marathon today is a model for many similar events in the region.
