COX'S BAZAR INTERNATIONAL MARATHON 2026

COX'S BAZAR INTERNATIONAL MARATHON 2026!

​Following a successful legacy of events from 2023 to 2026—including the Cox’s Bazar Runs, the Cox's Bazar Marathon 2025, the Victory Day Half Marathon, the Boishakhi Triathlon (as the organizing partner), and the recent Summer Beach Run 2026—we are thrilled to officially launch the Cox’s Bazar International Marathon 2026!

Set for November 14, 2026, this international-standard marathon invites runners from around the world to experience an unforgettable race through the stunning landscapes of Cox’s Bazar — from the vibrant town and rolling hills to the breathtaking Marine Drive, with the endless blue of the Bay of Bengal by your side.

Come run where the mountains meet the sea!
