Bratislava Marathon

Slovakia's flagship city marathon, held annually in Bratislava since the mid-2000s and title-sponsored as the "CSOB Bratislava Marathon" by CSOB bank. The 21st edition ran Saturday-Sunday, April 11-12, 2026 (Hobby Day plus Race Day), starting and finishing at the Eurovea shopping mall on Pribinova street and looping through the Stare Mesto, Ruzinov, and Petrzalka districts on a flat, paved city circuit with no significant elevation changes. The organiser's site now references a 22nd edition for 2027; independent race calendars (ahotu, World's Marathons, MarathonGuide) converge on Saturday-Sunday, April 10-11, 2027, matching the event's early/second-weekend-of-April cadence, but the official site had not yet published a confirmed date or opened registration as of this record's refresh. Entry was capped at 1,500 marathon finishers for 2026, with tiered pricing rising as race day approached and a 30% discount for clients of CSOB's partner health insurer, Dovera; 2027 pricing has not yet been announced, so the prior cycle's final-tier prices are carried over as a low-confidence reference only. The same weekend also includes a half marathon, 10K, relay marathon, and shorter fun runs, tracked separately from this full-marathon record per 42cal convention.
