The Jubilee Club

The BERLIN MARATHON is one of the most prestigious and time-honored sporting events in the world. In 1997, on the race’s 25th anniversary, the Jubilee Club was founded as a token of appreciation for the most loyal athletes. Today, the Jubilee Club includes not only runners, wheelchair athletes, and handcyclists, but also inline skaters.

Anyone who has successfully completed the BERLIN MARATHON at least 10 times in any discipline can apply for membership. Among other benefits, Jubilees receive a lifetime personalized bib number for participation.

Jubilee Club members are easily recognizable: they have a colorful, lifetime personalized bib number, exclusive event shirts and bib numbers, a special medal, souvenirs, and much more!

Here's what the Jubilee Club has to offer

With your special bib number as a Jubilee Club member, you’ll stand out from the other participants on the course. Jubilee bib numbers are assigned in the order in which applications for Jubilee Club membership are received. You’ll receive your Jubilee bib number during the MARATHON EXPO at the exclusive Jubilee counter when you pick up your bib number.

In addition to your bib number, you can also pick up a back number at the MARATHON EXPO featuring your name and the number of races you’ve already completed. A privilege exclusively for Jubilees!

If you have successfully completed the BERLIN-MARATHON 20, 25, 30, 35, or 40 times in a single discipline (running, handbike, wheelchair or inline skating), we’ll give you a free entry for the following year.

We cordially invite you to visit the exclusive Jubilee Lounge at the MARATHON EXPO as part of the GENERALI BERLIN-MARATHON. Here you’ll meet the international Jubilee community just before the big event!

What else awaits you there:

  • your Jubilee back bib number with your name and the number of times you've successfully completed the BERLIN-MARATHON
  • exclusive souvenirs and merchandise

You will need either your membership card or your Jubilee bib number for entry
