The traditional Advent run for young and old in Zurich city center.

When the days get cooler, the Christmas markets open their doors and the whole city smells magical and Christmassy, it's time for the running highlight of the year! Over 20,000 running enthusiasts will take part in the pre-Christmas running event on December 14, 2025. Those who have completed the run or are there as spectators can enjoy the wonderful atmosphere in the Silvesterlauf village near Zurich's Schifflände.

Everyone will find the right category at the Zurich New Year's Eve Run: professionals, beginners, children and groups.
