The half marathon uses the course of the Vienna City Marathon. In 2026 it went along the Hauptallee in the Prater park, around the Ringstrasse and along the Mariahilfer Strasse. On the 2026 course, the lowest and highest points were only 44 metres apart. The course is measured to AIMS standards and is part of the World Athletics Global Calendar.

Runners start in waves, and the finish closes at 13:00. You must be 16 or older. Public registration closed in September 2026; our entries come through the SuperHalfs partnership. The same weekend has the marathon, a relay marathon, 10 km and 5 km runs and children's races. You collect your bib at the Vienna Sports World expo in the Marx Halle, with about 100 exhibitors. Bring your pick-up email and a photo ID.

SuperHalfs EUROPA starts in 2027 with six half marathons: Napoli, Warsaw, Belgrade, Vienna, Riga and Stockholm. Finish all six, in any order and with no time limit, and you receive the EUROPA SuperMedal. A race counts when your chip time is in the official results. EUROPA races do not count towards the separate ORIGINALS medal.

As a long-term SuperHalfs partner, we have guaranteed race entries for all twelve SuperHalfs races, among the leading half marathons in Europe. With us you get your entry, the hotel and the whole race weekend in one package.

Our race weekend: you arrive two days before the race and check in. The day before the race there is a city walk, the expo and bib collection, a short easy run and a pasta party. After the race there is a finishers' dinner. The next day you have breakfast and travel home. We send the hotel, the price and the full list of what is included with your offer.

SportHoliday is an official SuperHalfs travel partner.

Trips that stay with you
Is this trip right for me if I am a beginner runner?

Check the distance, the level and the programme on this page, then tell us about your recent training. We help you decide before you book, and we tell you honestly if the trip does not suit you.

What is the difference between the race package and the companion package?

The race package is for you as a participant; what it includes is listed on this page. The companion package is for a partner or friend who travels with you without racing: the same hotel and trip. Ask for it in your request. We send its price with your offer.

Can I come alone?

Yes. You can share a twin room with another traveller of the same sex, or take a single room for an extra price. We confirm your room and its price with your offer.

How much does the package cost?

The package price is to be confirmed. Join the waitlist and be the first to know when the travel package opens.

How can I send a request?

Join the waitlist on this page. It is free. We send you the offer first.

Do you help with a visa?

Yes. After you book, we send a confirmation of your trip and hotel for your visa application. You apply for the visa yourself, so check the rules for your passport early.

Can I cancel my booking?

Yes. The cost depends on how close to the trip you cancel and what we have already paid for your trip. The full terms are in our Cancellation policy and in your offer. Joining the waitlist is free and does not bind you. We strongly recommend travel insurance with cancellation cover.
