One of the most historic events on the Queensland running calendar, the Brisbane Marathon Festival has iconic resonance with the 1982 Commonwealth Games where the famed Robert de Castella was first across the line in a celebrated victory.
Celebrating our 34th year in 2026, the EVA Air Brisbane Marathon Festival is one of the oldest and most friendly events on the Australian calendar attracting thousands of participants from over 35 countries annually. Often labelled the “boutique” marathon of choice, in part due to the VIP treatment all participants receive. The event celebrates fun fitness and the test of ultimate human endurance – the Marathon. The EVA Air Brisbane Marathon Festival is a world class AIMS certified event attracting elite, recreational as well as encouraging the local community to get out and get active and enjoy visiting Brisbane City
