Amsterdam Marathon 2023

Live Stream, Course, Start Time, Race Route

The Amsterdam Marathon is one of the larger European marathons, taking place in late Autumn each year, usually around the middle of October, and has increased in popularity with the addition oo a live stream on the official marathon website, opening the event up to a wider global viewing audience.

In a country renowned worldwide for flat terrain the course is widely regarded as one of the gentler options and as such represents a decent starting point for runners with an eye of working their way up to the more challenging marathon distance events. The event now has a cap on participants, the 2023 is now limiited to 20,000 runners for the main event and 20,000 for the half marathon.

The marathon, which has now been taking place annually since 1975, is currently fully titled the TSC Amsterdam marathon due to the current sponsor Tata Consultancy Services. In common with many city marathons these days there is also a half marathon run on the same day, using a lot of the same route.
