Palma City Half Marathon 2027

Palma has two half marathons, and this is the spring one: the Mallorca Mitja Marató Ciutat de Palma, organised by Club Marathon Mallorca. It’s a different event from the October TUI Palma Marathon half. The 34th edition is provisionally set for Sunday 21 March 2027. The organisers say the date still needs official confirmation, and the race is always on a Sunday in the second half of March.

A course built for a PB

Both races start on Avinguda Adolfo Suárez in the Parc de la Mar, in front of the cathedral, and finish in the same park beside the Joan Miró mural. The half is a straight out-and-back along the sea on the Passeig Marítim, the Passeig Sagrera and the Autovia de Llevant. It’s all at sea level and on tarmac, with no rises or cobbles, RFEA-certified, and fully closed to traffic.

The 2026 race

The 33rd edition in 2026 had 4,776 finishers across both races. George Kiptum won the men’s half in 1:02:49, and Margaret Coogan (Herne Hill Harriers) won the women’s race in 1:19:31. There’s a strong international field: the organisers say Palma in March is typically around 15 °C at 10:00 with low humidity, which is why so many European clubs build a spring training week around the race.

Running for Oriol

The race supports Som n’Oriol, the campaign for Oriol, the only diagnosed case in the Balearic Islands of FOXG1 syndrome, a rare neurological disorder. Every bib helps raise awareness of the syndrome and the research into it.
