Alpes‑Maritimes Nice–Cannes Marathon

The Marathon des Alpes-Maritimes Nice-Cannes is scheduled for Sunday 8 November 2026 and is organised by Azur Sport Organisation. The race follows the classic ville‑à‑ville route from Nice to Cannes, offering extensive coastal views along the Côte d'Azur and finishing on La Croisette in Cannes where past editions have celebrated finishers with a prominent red carpet. The event is positioned as a major French marathon with a large, international field and limited entries; organisers advertise a high-quality "Riviera" experience for participants and visitors. Expect a lively race weekend with multiple formats under the Nice‑Cannes brand and strong local atmosphere.

The event weekend includes several race formats (full marathon, 2×21.1 km, 20 km, and relay options) together with participant services such as personalised bibs, timed results and organised bag transfer. The organiser highlights practical benefits for runners including the race bib serving as a train pass on race day, paced groups for common finishing targets, and charitable fundraising components. The race is recognised on international calendars and listed as an AbbottWMM age‑group qualifying event, attracting a diverse, often international entry.
