Green Event
GREEN EVENTS TIROL is an initiative of Klimabündnis Tirol and Umwelt Verein Tirol in cooperation with the province of Tyrol to promote an environmentally and socially responsible event culture.
Sustainability will remain a top priority for the Glacier Marathon in 2026 as well. Since being certified as a GREEN EVENT TIROL basic in 2021, we have successfully secured the GREEN EVENT TIROL award five times in a row.
