Celebrating Our Incredible Volunteers During Volunteer Week

celebrating our incredible volunteers during volunteer week
As part of Volunteer Week, we want to take a moment to recognise and celebrate the amazing volunteers who support Belfast City Marathon events throughout the year.

From cheering participants on course and handing out water, to assisting with registration, marshalling routes and helping at the finish line, our volunteers play a vital role in creating safe, enjoyable and memorable experiences for thousands of runners and walkers at every event.

Their enthusiasm, commitment and community spirit are at the heart of what makes our events so special. Whether rain or shine, our volunteers always show up with smiles, encouragement and endless support for participants of all abilities.

We are incredibly grateful to every single person who gives up their time to help make our events possible. Your dedication does not go unnoticed, and we truly couldn’t do it without you.
