The 27th Göteborg Half Marathon has beaten the registration record with over 40, 000 runners having registered!

The marathon has grown to be one of the greatest long distance races in the world.

The course starts in one of the city's most beautiful parks, outside historic Slottsskogsvallen Athletic Arena, the site of many world records.

It circles the city, crossing over two bridges and giving an outstanding view of the surrounding area and the harbour, finishing back in the arena after passing through the city centre.

Run through the heart of one of Scandinavia’s most beautiful cities, or choose the lazy option and cheer on the energetic participants instead since the course will be lined with 200,000 enthusiastic spectators cheering the runners along.

Added incentives for runners include a free T-shirt for non-Scandinavians and free entry to the amazing Liseberg Amusement Park.

Göteborg offers the charm of a small town and the opportunities of a big city with museums, ice skating and ice hockey rinks , good food and many other different activities.

Enjoy a memorable and peaceful excursion into the archipelago or along the west coast with one of the last remaining vintage steamship in Sweden and do not miss the Paddan boats that will take you through the old moat, under 20 bridges and on 17th century canals!

Welcome to Göteborg!
