One of the most atmospheric marathons in Europe, the Irish Life Dublin Marathon is known for its friendly crowd and excellent organization. With start and finish in the center of Dublin, you will run a full lap through the city, past wide avenues, green parks and distinctive neighborhoods.

The course is relatively flat, making it suitable for both a fast time and a relaxed marathon experience. Along the way you will run past highlights such as Phoenix Park, one of the largest city parks in Europe, and be continuously encouraged by the enthusiastic Irish crowd - an atmosphere that makes this marathon truly unique.

The Dublin Marathon 2026 takes place in October and has a time limit of about 7 hours. The weather in October is usually mild for running with temperatures between 12 and 14 degrees.
