The Tunisian capital is gearing up to host the 38th edition of the COMAR Tunis-Carthage Marathon, which will kick off on Sunday, November 30, 2025. Under the high patronage of the Ministry of Youth and Sports and organized in close partnership with the Tunisian Athletics Federation (FTA), the event promises to be a grand celebration of sports open to all.
A Comprehensive Range of Courses for All

Beyond Competition: Promoting International Attractiveness and Public Health
The COMAR Marathon has a dual ambition: to strengthen its international attractiveness by attracting an increasingly large number of runners from the Maghreb, Europe, and beyond, and to promote sports practice as an essential lever for public health and social cohesion.
Prioritizing Safety and Well-being
The safety and well-being of participants are an absolute priority. A comprehensive security and medical assistance system will be deployed throughout the courses, including:
- Regularly spaced rescue posts every 5 km
- A fleet of ambulances and medical motorcycles for rapid interventions
- Fixed medical antennas at the starting and finishing points To ensure impeccable timing, all runner bibs will be equipped with electronic chips.
More Than Just a Sports Event: Promoting International Dimension and Environmental Commitment
The marathon aims to strengthen its international dimension and promote sports-health. This edition also reaffirms its environmental commitment through the "1 dinar collected = 1 tree planted" operation. Runners can opt for a "solidarity bib" to directly contribute to reforestation and carbon neutrality.
