About the event

The Tromsø Midnight Sun Marathon is the world’s northernmost AIMS-certified marathon, offering athletes the rare chance to run under a sun that never sets. Held annually in June in Norway’s Arctic capital, the event draws over 6,000 runners from around the globe. The main marathon course begins and ends in Tromsø’s city center, taking runners across the iconic Tromsø Bridge twice, with gentle elevation from 6 to 43 meters above sea level. Participants traverse stunning coastal roads, framed by fjords and snow-dusted peaks glowing in the midnight light. Five distances are available: marathon (42 km), half marathon (21 km), 10 km, 5 km, and a shorter children’s race. The race is inclusive, festive, and steeped in Nordic charm, with traditions like Sami tents used as temporary shelters and a festive post-race vibe throughout the city.
