Dear runner, The 43rd edition of the 20km of Brussels will take place on Sunday 28 May 2023. The race will start as of 10.00 in the traditional 6 start boxes. Your estimated time will determine your start box. The Brussels 20 km is also open to walkers. The maximum time of the race has been increased to 5 hours. This year the Running for Europe team will run to safeguard our European democracy with the "Democracy in Action" plan that aims to empower citizens and build democracies that are more resilient across the EU.   Joining the Running for Europe team also means running for a good cause. The team will raise funds for Amnesty International, an international non-governmental organization focused on human rights.   Practical Information Registration is open from now until 30 April. If you decide to register after 30 April, you will need to inform the RfE organising team about your registration (email below) and collect your race number yourself at the Sibp office (17 rue de la Chapelle, 1000 Brussels).

22-12-2021 : Running For Europe 2022

We would like to inform you that the organisation of the 20km of Brussels with the Running for Europe team will be organised differently in 2022.

CACE is no longer in charge of the process, so you will no longer be able to register with the self-registration tool on the CACE website.

Instead you will need to register directly on the race organisers website in March – the exact date will be confirmed.

The race numbers distribution will be organised as in 2021.

More information will be provided in early 2022, by the Commission.

Please address your questions about the EU participation to the 20km of Brussels to EC-RUNNING-FOR-EUROPE@ec.europa.eu

Thank you for your understanding.
