The Romeo & Giulietta Run Half Marathon (until 2023 known as ‘Giulietta & Romeo Half Marathon’) is held each February in Verona, a beautiful city of art and culture, and the setting for Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet play.

It's a very popular early-season road running event that attracts over 5,000 runners from all over the globe.

There are three race options:

  • 21.1k half marathon
  • 11+10k relay
  • non-competitive Family Run

Over the years, the race course has been changed several times.

In 2025, the half marathon route will begin and end at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi stadium in the western part of Verona.

Details on the course will, hopefully, be published on the official event website (see the link below).

Usually, the course is scenic and largely flat.
