The adidas Stockholm Marathon finishes inside Stockholm Olympic Stadium, built for the 1912 Games. The 2027 race is on Saturday 29 May.

The organiser gives a preliminary start time of 12:00. A noon start leaves time for breakfast, and most of your race falls in the afternoon.

The organiser has not published the 2027 collection place and hours, bag drop, checkpoint times or route. Where it has not, the guide says so.

Getting to Stockholm

Arlanda Express connects the airport with Stockholm Central in 18 minutes, with departures every 12 to 15 minutes. Your ticket is valid for any departure. Allow separately for the walk to the platform and the trip from Stockholm Central to your room.

The course 2026 details

The 2026 race started on Lidingövägen near the Östermalm sports grounds and finished inside Stockholm Stadium. The organiser's 2026 course page says the route builds on the classic one, with a new rhythm and slightly flatter. It circles Gamla Stan on both passes and cuts through SoFo on Södermalm. The main climbs are Katarinavägen, Hornsgatan and Lundagatan, and Västerbron.
