Bambini run at the GENERALI BERLIN HALF MARATHON
The Bambini Run is an exciting event for young athletes and part of the Bambini Run series presented by ADAC Berlin-Brandenburg. Here, children up to the age of 10 can let off steam in an unforgettable setting under the motto “Children move voluntarily”.
As part of the GENERALI BERLIN HALF MARATHON, Messe Berlin will become a special course on which the kids can really put their foot down. Every finisher will not only receive a medal and a certificate, but also other rewards.
With the Bambini collector's booklet, children can also collect a stamp for each participation and win exciting prizes - the more stamps, the greater the prizes!
Frido is looking forward to seeing you at the starting line and having lots of running fun with you.

General Information
Good to know
- We would ask that you only accompany children aged 4 and under into the starting area and onto the course.
- Children aged 0 to 2 may walk holding the hand of, or in the arms of, the person accompanying them
- Children aged 5 and over can run without being accompanied – this helps our little ones to become more independent.
- Of course, the ‘support crew’ can cheer them on enthusiastically from the side of the course.
- It is not possible to take part with a stroller, baby jogger or similar.
For a safe event
- Please ensure that the entrances and exits are kept clear so that ALL children can reach the starting line without obstruction and find their parents at the exit.
- Please be considerate of one another and the other families.
- Please behave in the way you would want your own family to behave, for their safety and enjoyment.
- Please follow the instructions given by our team and the security staff on site.
- Photography and filming of your children are only permitted from outside the course. Please be considerate of one another and the other families.
