The Buenos Aires Marathon has become an increasingly popular international marathon. And it's no wonder. Besides the Argentine capital being a pleasant city for tourism, reminiscent of European cities, its proximity to major South American capitals ends up being a key factor in the choice.
The next edition of the marathon will be held on September 20, 2026, and expects a large number of Argentinians and foreigners seeking their personal records, as the course is very favorable and the weather at that time is a great advantage for those seeking performance, but also a good opportunity to make a good debut in the 42k.
The race starts in the Palermo area and passes through the main tourist attractions of Buenos Aires.
Argentina's capital is much more than just tango. Known as the Paris of South America, it uniquely combines architecture inspired by French boulevards with Latin charm. Its more than 2,8 million inhabitants have transformed the city into a cultural melting pot, which is reflected in the enormous variety of restaurants and vast array of leisure options.
The city's museums are a spectacle in themselves, such as MALBA, which exhibits a rich collection of Latin American art. The theaters are also excellent. At any time of year there are interesting plays showing, whether dramas, musicals or acrobatic shows, such as the traditional Fuerza Bruta.
Buenos Aires is, for many Brazilians, their first international destination. And not without reason. Lose yourself in its tree-lined streets, enjoy a delicious barbecue or a tasty Malbec wine, and return home in love with the metropolis of our hermanos (brothers/neighbors).
One of the city's most iconic neighborhoods, with its streets lined with colorful houses, tango dancers and singers everywhere. Must-sees in this area include Caminito, a street full of art and great bars, and La Bombonera stadium, where guided tours are available.
Every Sunday, this fair attracts a large number of tourists and locals eager to explore the antiques and countless Argentine souvenirs for sale. Also enjoy the street performers, who are sometimes quite creative.
Modern and gigantic, this museum boasts an impressive permanent collection and several temporary exhibitions of Latin American art. It is there that the painting Abaporu (1928), by the Brazilian painter Tarsila do Amaral, is on display.
Considered one of the most beautiful bookstores in the world, El Ateneo Grand Splendid was built in a former palatial theater. Many of the building's original details have remained intact, from the stage to the boxes.
This enormous green space, spanning over 80 hectares, was inaugurated in 1875 and attracts many Buenos Aires residents daily, who come to exercise or have picnics. It includes the Botanical Garden, Japanese Park, Rose Garden, Zoo, Galileo Galilei Planetarium, and the Palermo Hippodrome.
