Why attend here

Come for the marathon, stay for the spring awakening of Thessaloniki — the waterfront promenade is perfect for a pre-race stroll, and the White Tower glows in the mild April air. After crossing the finish line, treat yourself to a hearty plate of soutzoukakia at a seaside taverna, or wander the Ano Poli's cobbled lanes for panoramic views. April here means fewer crowds and fresh sea breezes, making it an ideal time to soak up the city's Byzantine charm without the summer heat.
