Munich Marathon 2025: New organizer and already 13,000 registrations!

The marathon runners in Munich can breathe a sigh of relief: the dispute over the direction of the Munich Marathon has come to an end. On October 12, 2025, the Laufstatt Event gGmbH will carry out the event after the Bavarian Administrative Court has rejected Gernot Weigl's application for preliminary legal protection. The award to the new organizer can therefore be legally incontestable, as the Süddeutsche Zeitung

With over 13,000 registrations that have already been received, the second managing director of Laufstatt, Anton Martic, expects a number of more than 20,000. Preparations are in full swing and the new concept for the event, which is now called "Marathon Munich by Brooks", promises a breath of fresh air. The award decision was made by the city of Munich, taking into account the traffic compatibility, which also contributes to the better accessibility of the Biedersteiner Clinic, such as the Maxvorstadt to optimize the implementation and to offer the participants an attractive route through Munich city center.

challenges of the event organization

The organization of a sport event is not an easy matter. It not only requires creative concepts, but also legal expertise, such as Martens Legal . From the application to compliance with public requirements to the complex contractual relationships, everything is well thought out. A successful event is not only a question of sport, but also the legal framework.

The dynamics that arose in the run -up to this event shows that a lot is always at stake at a big event. The anticipation for the marathon is growing, and with every new registration it becomes clearer that October 12 will be an exciting day for all runners in Munich. The city and the organizers are ready to meet this challenge with enthusiasm.
