Seville sold out over six months before event date

All 12,000 available places for the 40th anniversary of the Zurich Seville Marathon to be held on 23 February 2025 had been sold out by 12th August.

It’s the first time in its history that the event run out of slots six and a half months in advance, thanks to the expectation reached among elite athletes and popular runners who especially value the benefits of the circuit (the flattest in Europe), the very special weather conditions in February in Andalusia and the opportunity to run through the historic center of one of the most attractive cities in the world.

The Zurich Seville Marathon became in 2024 one of the six fastest marathons in history in 2024 with 11 national records broken and the race with the highest number of sub 2h10 and 2h15 athletes and the second with sub 2h30 women of all times, has already managed to beat some of the participation records for 2025, with 21% of women registered (17% in the last edition) and more than half of the runners from abroad (53% compared to 47% in 2024).

The international projection of the Seville Marathon continues to grow and grow. Although never in its almost 40 years of history has been sold out so early, more than six month in advance. The 12,000 numbers available on the website www.zurichmaratonsevilla.es have been sold out today August 12th and the Organization opens a waiting list.

The Zurich Maraton de Sevilla is organized by the Ayuntamiento de Sevilla, with the collaboration of Sport Life Ibérica and the sponsorship of Asics and TotalEnergies. Zurich is the title sponsor of the race.
