The Brisbane Marathon was first run in 1992 and is Brisbane's only marathon distance running event. Other races in the marathon festival include a half marathon, a 10 km run, a 5 km run/walk and a children's 2 km 'mini marathon'.

The marathon course is IAAF-AIMS certified[1] and accepted as a Boston Marathon qualifier.

The 2012 race saw more than 5,000 participants from 18 countries race along inner city streets.[2] 2024 saw a milestone of over 10,000 participants across all events with over 8,700+ confirmed finishers.[3]

There was no marathon in 2020. Entrants got automatic entry deferral to 2021 besides running a virtual race for no charge.
