Combining sport and culture on an ongoing basis.
In the middle of the "marathon stronghold" and Upper Austria's capital Linz, a new symphony will be created in 2024, one of running, dedicated to Anton Bruckner and his work: the Anton Bruckner Run with start at the Brucknerhaus Linz and finish at the Old Cathedral! For the ceremonial opening, the 1st Anton Bruckner Run will take place on September 15 - as an enjoyable run for all sports enthusiasts - held according to the rules of the Austrian Athletics Association. After the competition, the running course, designed by the sports and cultural experts of LIVA, will be handed over to the public as a unique, freely usable, permanent "symphony of running".

Already in spring, on April 6 and 7, the 22nd Oberbank Linz Danube Marathon, Upper Austria's largest running event, once again moves the entire city. The fast course, with the spectacular start on the Voest freeway bridge and past the most beautiful places in Linz, makes the Linz Marathon a popular destination for both professional athletes and amateur sports enthusiasts. In 2024 the running festival with heart and family feeling presents itself from its best side: for the first time organized according to the strict criteria of the Austrian Eco-Label for Green Events and organized in honor of Upper Austria's most famous composer - with a musical Bruckner Mile as pacesetter on the way to the next record!
