The Shenzhen Marathon is an annual elite marathon granted the World Athletics Gold Label, featuring a fast, well-designed route through Shenzhen's modern cityscape, including iconic landmarks and beautiful coastal areas.

Why attend here

December in Shenzhen brings mild, dry weather, ideal for a post-race stroll along the coastal boardwalk at Shenzhen Bay, where you can watch the sunset over the water. Fuel up on local dim sum and fresh seafood at the nearby markets, and explore the city's modern skyline and green spaces, like the Qianhai Stone Park, for a peaceful recovery day.
