It's on! A few days before the Crédit du Maroc Casablanca Marathon, the Marathon Village opened its doors on Wednesday 21 October at Espace Sacré-Cœur, Boulevard Rachidi. Until Saturday 24 October, it is the meeting point for every participant in this 17th edition, held under the High Patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI.
Opening hours
- Wednesday 21 October: 3 pm to 7 pm
- Thursday 22 to Saturday 24 October: 10 am to 7 pm
Pick up your bib
The Marathon Village is the only place to collect your bib and runner's pack. Bring your ID and your registration confirmation, printed or on your phone.
No bib pickup and no registration will be possible on race day. Make sure you come by before 7 pm on Saturday 24 October.
Much more than a bib pickup
For four days, the Village lives to the rhythm of « Vibe Casa »:
- partner areas to discover;
- sports and fun activities;
- awareness campaigns on health and sustainability.
It is also a chance to meet other runners, share your goals and enjoy the build-up to the race with family or friends.
Three evenings of talks
The Marathon Village hosts a series of three talks to look at race day from a new angle:
- Wednesday 21 October at 7:30 pm: Ali Lakhloufi opened the series with « Marathon and performance ».
- Thursday 22 October at 7:00 pm: Nadia Ben Bahtane, the Moroccan open-water swimmer who swam across the Strait of Gibraltar, presented « 42.195 km and a few nautical miles ».
- Friday 23 October at 6:30 pm: Mohsine Karrakchou closes the series with « 421 metres: rethinking performance, building the collective ».
Three different perspectives on endurance, pushing your limits and the strength of the collective.
