Full guideWhich 2027 marathon major ballots are open, and how to enter

Where it stands

As of 8 Sept 2026

The 2027 lottery is not open and no 2027 race date is published.

The official lottery page still describes the 2026 cycle only, and states the window that ran for it: 'Registration for the lottery of race entries for 2026 will be possible from September 25 until November 6, 2025.' That prior cycle is the anchor for 2027: expect the window to open in late September 2026 and run into early November 2026, most likely shortly after the 2026 race on 27 Sept 2026. The stored 2027 race date of 26 Sept 2027 stays an estimate from the late-September-Sunday pattern, which the organizer has broken before (the 2025 race ran 21 Sept 2025).

How to enter

Register via a personal user account at bmw-berlin-marathon.com once the 2027 lottery opens; single or team (2-3) applications, each team member completes their own registration and enters payment details

Your odds

Odds not officially published; roughly 50,000+ field and the lottery has been heavily oversubscribed in recent years

Good to know

The last-Sunday-of-September assumption is exactly what broke last time. The 2025 race ran on 21 Sept 2025, a week earlier than that pattern predicts, so the 26 Sept 2027 date here is a guess at a habit rather than a fixture and is not something to book flights against.
Other ballot trackers already publish a 2027 window that the organizer has not confirmed. Third-party sites list a lottery running roughly October to November 2026 with results at the end of November; none of it appears on bmw-berlin-marathon.com or scc-events.com, which is why the date fields here are empty rather than filled with those numbers.
