The Lowdown

The TUI Palma Marathon Mallorca is one of Europe's most popular autumn destination marathons, combining a flat, fast Mediterranean course with the architectural splendor of Palma de Mallorca's historic old town. Starting at Parc de la Mar at the foot of the magnificent La Seu Cathedral, runners head along the Paseo Marítimo waterfront promenade with the Bay of Palma stretching to the horizon, winding through the medieval old town and past landmarks such as the 14th-century circular Bellver Castle. The event offers three distances — marathon, half marathon and 10K — and is an Abbott World Marathon Majors Wanda Age Group qualifier. It is a founder and member of the TUI Mediterranean Marathon League, a family of destination races across the region. TUI has been title sponsor since the event adopted the name and in 2025 extended its title sponsorship through 2030. The warm October climate (typically 16-24°C) makes it one of the warmer European fall marathons, adding to the Balearic holiday atmosphere. The 2026 edition sold out across all distances.
