Generali Berlin Marathon 2027
The Berlin Marathon on Sunday 26 September 2027, now under Generali sponsorship after BMW's final year. In 2026 it started on Straße des 17. Juni and finished behind the Brandenburg Gate.
51 weeks to race day: base season
Plenty of runway. This far out, the win is a boring, consistent base rhythm: aerobic volume, strength, technique. The structured block starts closer in; what you do now decides how high it can climb.
Building for this one? Training plans cover the sessions, the weekly shape and how the block is paced. The R.A.C.E. Framework explains why it is built that way.

Commit to the date and we will walk you to it: a countdown, honest guidance by email, and the debrief afterwards. Full adaptive training for running races is coming; nothing here pretends otherwise.
One confirmation email, then the road begins. Registering for the race itself stays with the organiser.
“Entry is by lottery and the 2027 lottery is open, so the first decision is whether to apply. For preparation, the organiser's 2026 information put the finish behind the Brandenburg Gate and gave a 6 hour 15 minute limit; confirm 2027 details before planning around them.”

2027 course status: The details below come from the organiser's 2026 race-day information. The 2027 edition has not published its own, so treat them as context, not a confirmed 2027 course.

Not yet confirmed for this edition: 2027 start and finish area, 2027 start times, 2027 time limit, elevation gain, entry fees. We publish these only once they are on the official course page, so check there before you pace off anything here.
