hella Hamburg half-marathon

Half marathon across the city of Hamburg

In 2025, the 31st hella Hamburg Half Marathon will lead runners through the city of Hamburg. On a distance of 21.0975 kilometres they prove their running talent. This year, the starting signal will be given on the 29th June.

With over 10,000 runners last year, all participant records were easily broken. In 2023, at least this many athletes are expected to start. This makes the hella hamburg half-marathon one of Germany’s largest races of this type.

As every year, the skaters will begin at 9:30 a.m. and cover a distance of 21.1 km. At 10:00 a.m. on the dot, the starting shot for the runners will sound. Their course will take them on a sight-seeing tour through the Reeperbahn, past the Altona Rathaus, the Fischmarkt, the Alster or the jetty.

CITY AREA PORTRAIT St. Pauli, the Harbour & the Reeperbahn

At Hamburg’s city coast, the Elbe and the harbour, you can just sit down and watch as ships, ferries and tugs pass by and enjoy the strong sea breeze. A few hundred meters away you can experience Hamburg’s world-famous “sinful mile” – the Reeperbahn.

Traditional weekly market in Altona Fischmarkt

A real Hamburg classic – since 1703!

Sunday morning in Hamburg. While most of the city still sleeps, the Große Elbstraße wakes up to the bustling rhythm of the Hamburg Fish Market. For over 300 years, it’s been a place of trade, tradition and typical northern charm – full of energy, humor and harbor atmosphere.

Auctioneers, Music & Market Magic

Since 1703, almost anything that’s not nailed down is for sale – from antique teapots to freshly packed meat parcels. Legendary market characters like Aale-Dieter shout their offers into the crowd, bananas fly through the air, and fish is sold by the bucket. You’ll find fresh seafood, tropical fruit, flowers, clothing, souvenirs and much more – the market is a full-sensory experience.

Between night and morning – one iconic gathering

Party-goers fresh off the Reeperbahn mingle with early risers at the harborfront, sipping coffee or munching on a fish roll as the sun rises. For some, the day is just beginning; for others, it’s not quite over yet. The historic Fish Auction Hall from 1896 completes the experience with live music and breakfast options.

Opening Hours

Summer (April–October): Sunday from 5:00 to 9:30 AM

Winter (November–March): Sunday from 7:00 to 9:30 AM

A must-see for culture lovers, Hamburg fans and foodies alike!
