The Amsterdam Marathon is one of the most popular marathons in Europe. And 2025 will be a special year, as it's the 50th anniversary of the marathon while the city of Amsterdam celebrates its 750th anniversary.
You'll start and finish like a champion in the Olympic Stadium. The route takes you past iconic sights, including the passage under the Rijksmuseum, Vondelpark and the architecture along the Amstel river.
Sign up for a Shelter charity place and defend the right to a safe home for everyone.
You must be at least 18 years old to run the Amsterdam Marathon.
Already have your own place?
If you were lucky enough to secure your own spot, you can still join Team Shelter and use your place to fight the housing emergency. We'd love for you to join the team – please get in touch.

Your run fuels the fight for home
When you run and fundraise for Shelter, you're standing with people who face homelessness or housing injustice. For example, your £499 fundraising pledge could:
fund over 20 webchats providing essential housing advice
fund 17 calls to our emergency helpline
pay for legal advice to help three families in crisis keep their home
Fundraising for Shelter
We recommend you start by setting up a fundraising page on JustGiving and asking friends, family and colleagues to sponsor you. You can also organise an event such as a bake sale or quiz. See our fundraising resources for more inspiration.
Please make sure you’re confident in reaching the fundraising pledge before you sign up. We invest in places at charity events and need to raise as much as possible for our fight against housing injustice.
Our friendly Events team are on hand to support you with your fundraising. If you have a question or want to talk through ideas, email running@shelter.org.uk or call us on 0344 515 1190.
