The biggest party in the event’s history
Recently, bib number 18,001 crossed the virtual registration desk – making it official: the hella hamburg half marathon 2026 will be the biggest party in the history of our event. Once again, just as in 2025, we will break the participation record. And you are among those making this possible. Because Hamburg clearly can’t get enough, the new participation limit has been increased to 24,000 half marathon runners. We are heading straight toward another record-breaking field.
What does that mean for you? More atmosphere in the start area. More support along the course. And plenty of special moments as you cross the finish line. June 28, 2026 promises an impressive backdrop and a running experience you won’t forget anytime soon.
