26 September 2026, SATURDAY from 12:00 to 4:00 p.m.
Combine your visit to the Sport & Fitness Expo and the Race Office with a tasting!
Famous, exquisite handmade dumplings prepared with heart and tradition.
Dumplings will be prepared according to regional recipes by local village associations. But that’s not all – at the stalls you’ll also be able to buy snacks, soups, and other signature dishes from our guests.
Marathon Fan Zone
We invite you to the family-friendly Marathon Fan Zone.
For spectators waiting for their runners and for all race participants, a visit to the Runners’ Village will combine education with great fun!
The event partners have prepared plenty of attractions for both adults and children. Face painting, art workshops, photo booths, themed photo walls, inflatable playgrounds, and educational stands will surely delight the youngest visitors, while adults will enjoy chill-out zones, coffee, drinks, fruit, and delicious snacks.
More details about the event program will be available closer to the event!
Running&Lifestyle EXPO
Before the fan zone will opens, you can visit the Running&Lifestyle EXPO at the Race Office.
On Friday and Saturday, the expo will feature dozens of stands from our partners and guests – a place where runners can do their pre-race shopping and talk to experts, while spectators can pick up free cheering gadgets, take souvenir photos, test sports equipment, and enjoy snacks.
In our partners’ zones, you’ll find spaces dedicated to both children and adults. In addition to physiotherapy consultations and fitness tests, you’ll have the chance to race on a treadmill, take part in competitions, and spend time with fellow running enthusiasts. Join us on Friday and Saturday during Race Office opening hours.

Exhibition space sales for the Running & Lifestyle EXPO will begin in early August.
Champions’ Evening
Did you run a marathon? Or maybe 10 km? Or perhaps you just cheered with all your heart? For us, it doesn’t matter – on the evening of September 27, we will all be champions!
On Sunday after the race, we invite you to the Evening of Champions – a gathering where we will share emotions and celebrate our achievements.
In 2026, we’ll be back with another edition of this celebration — details will be announced closer to the event.
