Unlucky number 13 is behind us. So, we are now very experienced teenagers. With the patience ofteenagers (read: none), we are, by the speed of a hedgehog crossing a marathon track, starting preparations for another unforgettable night party.

Danube is still our guideline and track will again follow his bend just before Petrovaradin Rock and The Drunk clock tower, which will follow every step you make (I’ll be watching you). And, you have to admit, it is much nicer to run there then downtown. Much fresher. And June can be very warm. This year we are back to the old location, Đačko igralište. last year we were The Capital of Culture. This year we will be, again, The Capital of Running.

So, mark 24. June at your calendars? You do not have them? We will solve that.

You can see the technical details below.

Hope to see you (again)
Sincerely yours Night Marathon
