The Maine Marathon

The Maine Marathon is one of New England’s longest-running and most beloved endurance events. This nonprofit, all-volunteer race offers Boston Marathon qualification, an acclaimed course along the Maine coast, and a festival atmosphere that draws elite runners, relay teams, and first-timers alike.

Sponsors enjoy high-visibility brand placements, on-course activations, and deep community alignment. With 64% of gross revenue donated to charity and nearly $8 million raised since 1997, the event delivers impact that goes far beyond race day.

Portland’s rich culture, passionate fans, and autumn beauty combine to make this a must-attend for athletes and brands alike.
