COPENHAGEN HALF MARATHON 2027
19 SEPTEMBER 2027
The Copenhagen Half Marathon is one of Europe’s fastest and most modern half marathons, part of the SuperHalfs series alongside Lisbon, Prague, Berlin, Cardiff, and Valencia. Held annually in mid‑September, it has quickly become a global favorite for both elite athletes and recreational runners. Each edition welcomes more than 25,000 participants from around the world, making it one of Scandinavia’s largest running events. Starting and finishing on Øster Allé near Fælledparken, the course runs through the heart of Copenhagen—passing landmarks such as The Little Mermaid, Amalienborg Palace, the Marble Church, and the Lakes. With its flat, record‑breaking route, cool autumn weather, and vibrant crowd support, Copenhagen offers both a chance at personal bests and a cultural journey through one of Europe’s most livable cities. Whether you’re chasing a world record, running for charity, or enjoying the Nordic atmosphere, the Copenhagen Half Marathon delivers an unforgettable experience – where every stride echoes with resilience, unity, and celebration.
