This year, we’re bringing everyone together before… and during the Marathon! We invite Warsaw residents, supporters and, of course, you – the runners – to come and spend some time together.

You’ll find our carb-loading tents at the foot of the Palace of Culture and Science, on the Marszałkowska Street side.

It’s about more than just food – it’s a chance for the running community to come together, chat, laugh and enjoy the atmosphere. Come by, grab some pierogi, soak up the vibe and fuel up on positive energy!
