Zurich Maratón de Sevilla, live.

The flattest marathon in Europe, past the Giralda and the river

The Zurich Maratón de Sevilla is a flat, sea level marathon in late February that runs past the best known sights of Seville.

The 42nd edition, the XLII Zurich Maratón de Sevilla, starts at 8:30 on Sunday 21 February 2027. It is organised by the city's Instituto Municipal de Deportes with Sport Life Ibérica, and the 2027 race sold out at a record 20,000 runners. In 2026 the race carried the World Athletics Elite Label.

The course is 42,195 metres. It starts on Avenida de María Luisa and finishes on Paseo de las Delicias at the Glorieta de Buenos Aires. The organiser calls it the flattest marathon in Europe. It is at sea level, sheltered from the wind, and passes Plaza de España, the Torre del Oro, the Giralda, the María Luisa park and the Maestranza bullring, through the monumental centre where the crowds are biggest.

The finish closes six hours after the last runner starts, at 15:00. The organiser calls the race perfect for a fast time, thanks to the flat, sea level course sheltered from the wind, the city's weather in late February and the route through the monumental centre.

On Saturday 20 February the 5K Breakfast Run starts and finishes at Plaza de América at 9:30, with a one hour limit and room for 3,500 people. It is open to anyone over 12.

On Livebib you can follow a participant who chooses to share their own live position from the phone they carry. This is not the organiser's timing, and the official results come from the Zurich Maratón de Sevilla.
