The Busan Bridge Marathon, announced as the Busan International Marathon, is a December marathon in Busan that crosses three sea bridges: the Gwangan Bridge, the Busan Harbour Bridge and the Namhang Bridge. Its first edition is on 6 December 2026 and it is described as the city's first full-course marathon. Busan Metropolitan City, the broadcaster KNN and the Korea Athletics Federation organise it. The full marathon starts at BEXCO in Haeundae and runs past the yacht centre and Dongbaekseom intersection, over the Gwangan Bridge, through the Yongdang ramp and Daeyeon overpass, and across the Busan Harbour Bridge and the Namhang Bridge. It turns at the Chungmu-dong junction and returns by the same bridges to BEXCO. A 10 km road race, starting on the Gwangan Bridge deck and finishing at BEXCO, runs on the same day. Capacity is 12,000, with 5,000 places for the full marathon and 7,000 for the 10 km. Entries sold out within 2 hours 50 minutes of opening on 24 August 2026. Full marathon entrants had to submit an official certificate of a marathon finish in 4 hours 30 minutes or faster. The entry fee for the full marathon is ₩80,000.
