About the Venice Half Marathon
The Venice 21K is separately entered, capped and timed within Venicemarathon weekend. Its Mestre start and exact half-marathon course distinguish it from both the 42K and 10K.
Course
The mostly flat route starts at Piazza Ferretto, crosses Ponte della Libertà and finishes at Riva Sette Martiri. Fourteen bridges in the final three kilometres disrupt late-race rhythm.
Race-day weather
Late October in Venice is often cool and humid, with rain, wind and high-water conditions possible. Stone surfaces and bridge ramps can become slick in wet weather.
