Rimini Marathon 2027

Bib pickup takes place at the marathon village, at Rotonda Lucio Battisti, in the Grand Hotel area of Rimini. You must present the confirmation letter, or the authorization included in that letter, along with an identity document. The confirmation letter is sent by email on Wednesday 14 April 2027 and remains downloadable from your personal area on the registration website. Pickup hours are as follows:

• Friday 16 April 2027 from 15:00 to 19:30;

• Sunday 18 April 2027 from 7:00 to 8:00 for the half marathon, and from 7:00 to 8:30 for the marathon and the 16 km.

If you can’t come in person, someone else can pick up your bib thanks to the authorization.

All starts take place at Rotonda Lucio Battisti in Rimini, on Sunday 18 April 2027:

• half marathon at 8:30, with access to the start line from 8:00;

The regulations distinguish between competitive and non-competitive events.

• Competitive marathon and half marathon: for registration, a FIDAL membership card is sufficient; alternatively, a Runcard (€30) or Runcard EPS (€15) is required, accompanied by a medical certificate of fitness for competitive track and field (wording: athletics). The regulations also indicate that a World Athletics membership card is sufficient;

• Marathon and half marathon without a membership card: participation is in the non-competitive version, with results listed in alphabetical order;

• 16 km: no membership card or medical certificate; registration serves as a self-declaration of fitness for non-competitive practice;

• Family Run and Kids Run: no document or medical certificate.

The minimum age is 20 for the marathon, 18 for the half marathon, and 18 for the 16 km. The Family Run is open to everyone, and the Kids Run is for children aged 6 to 11.

The fee increases month after month: the earlier you register, the less you pay.

• Marathon: from €45 to €65, in €5 tiers;

• Half marathon: from €30 to €40;

• 16 km: from €20 to €30;

• Family Run: €10, of which €1 is donated to charity;

• Kids Run: €5 per child.

Online registrations close on Sunday 11 April 2027. On-site registrations remain possible for some formats, subject to bib availability and at a higher fee. Group rates are available on the registration website.

The maximum time is 7 hours for the marathon, 3 hours for the half marathon, and 2 hours 30 minutes for the 16 km. The regulations do not mention intermediate cut-off times. A sweep car accompanies runners who drop out, with recovery areas on the marathon course at km 21, 25, 30 and 35.

The marathon includes 8 aid stations, with water at each point. From km 20 onward, the offering also includes energy supplements, salt, sugar, fruit and solid foods, with an aid station dedicated to runners with celiac disease. Five sponge stations are set up at km 17.5, 22.5, 27.5, 32.5 and 37.5.

The regulations do not specify any mandatory equipment. The bib must be worn visibly on the shirt, without being covered, and the timing chip must remain attached to the bib: without it, no ranking is possible. Starting without a bib is forbidden, and the chip is not returned at the finish.

Registration for the marathon and half marathon includes:

• the bib and timing chip;

• insurance and medical assistance;

• aid stations along the course and at the finish;

• the race pack;

• the finisher medal;

• a downloadable participation certificate;

• race photos downloadable for free;

• pacers;

• a massage area;

• hot showers;

• a shuttle for runners who withdraw.

Yes, the bag drop, changing rooms and hot showers are located at Rotonda Lucio Battisti, in the Grand Hotel area. Bags are dropped off on the morning of Sunday 18 April 2027, before 8:15 according to the page dedicated to showers and before 8:30 according to the information page. Each bag bears the label provided with the bib, with the corresponding number. The organization recommends bringing only the essentials, leaving valuables in the hotel, and declines all responsibility in the event of loss.
