The 26th Venicemarathon has almost reached the participant cap – The regular 6,000 bib numbers are sold out again!

The regular 6,000 bib numbers have been sold out, now there are just 900 special bib numbers which are supporting social projects. The participants in the Half Marathon of next 21st May are already over 2,000.

The 26^th Venicemarathon has almost reached the participant cap. Last night the 6,000 regular bib numbers have been sold out and the organizing committee have decided to close all possible ways to register directly except for the Tour Operators working in different countries.

About 900 special bib numbers are still available and they are available to support three social projects and they can be purchased only online.

The runners who will be able to get one of those numbers can choose among running to support the digging of new water wells in Uganda with the project Run for Water, Run for Life; running to support the building of prosthesis for children with the project Bimbingamba or running to subsidize the immunization campaign of polio in the underdeveloped countries supported by Rotary International thanks to the Project Run to End Polio.

On the website www.venicemarathon.it all detailed information on each project can be found and a special counter will update the bib-number at runners' disposal.

The Moonlight Half Marathon, at its very first edition on 21st May, is registering a great success.

Less than one month before the race it can count over 2,000 participants. In fact only 1,000 bib numbers are still available to take part in the new night half marathon organized by Venicemarathon and in collaboration with the Jesolo City Council and the City Council of Cavallino Treporti.

The deadline to apply for entering the half marathon is 18th May. For further information on registration fee, how to register and deadline visit
