First day – first run – first fun: Realise your New Year's resolutions immediately!
The Berlin New Year's Run is waiting for you with a relaxed, sporty start to the year! Here you can fulfil your New Year's resolutions without having to register. Instead of a participation fee, we would be delighted to receive your donation for a good cause. We have reserved the route from the Brandenburg Gate to Berlin Cathedral for all running enthusiasts. Some participants will be wearing costumes that were worn the day before at the Berlin New Year's Eve Run. At 12 noon on New Year's Day, the starting signal will be given for a sporty year!
Running together for a good cause at the Berlin New Year's Run
As the organiser of the Berlin New Year's Run, SCC EVENTS traditionally doesn't charge runners any participation fees. Instead, we collect donations for people in need. For many years, donations from New Year's Run participants have benefited the Björn Schulz Foundation. In addition to cash donations on site, we also collect donations for this good cause via our online donation platform. The Björn Schulz Foundation supports families with children, teenagers and young adults suffering from life-shortening illnesses, among other things with the Sonnenhof hospice and various outpatient services in Berlin and Brandenburg. Donate and run in the Berlin New Year's Run!
The top 5 highlights of the Berlin New Year's Run
- Running for a good cause – donation instead of participation fee
- Blocked-off 4-kilometre route in central Berlin for all runners
- Wonderful course from the Brandenburg Gate to the cathedral
- First certificate of the year and drink at the finish line
- Fulfilling two New Year's resolutions (more exercise & more time for family/friends)
We look forward to a colourful, relaxed and, above all, atmospheric first event of the year.
