Marathon events in Graz and Zagreb

Overview

In October 2026, major marathon events in Graz, Austria, and Zagreb, Croatia, are scheduled to cause significant local disruptions.

In Graz, the marathon on October 11 is expected to result in extensive road closures and traffic disruptions affecting both vehicles and public transportation. Restrictions include the closure of Franz-Graf-Allee and several key bridges crossing the Mur river. Various auxiliary races, such as the Family Run and Junior Marathon, will trigger additional restrictions starting earlier in the week.

In Zagreb, the 34th Zagreb Marathon and the World Veterans Marathon Championship are set for October 11. The event is expected to cause significant public transportation disruptions, with most tram lines operating on altered routes and line 13 suspended. To mitigate these changes, extraordinary bus lines will be introduced to serve specific routes.
