Oakland Marathon
Location:
Mountain Blvd.

Day/Date/Time:
Sunday, March 28
9:00 AM -

Experience all the sights and sounds that Oakland has to offer at the new Oakland Running Festival featuring Oakland's first marathon in 25 years! The race begins at 7:30 AM. Over 1,000 runners will begin on Broadway, race along Piedmont and College Avenues, pass by Lake Temescal and then tackle the hills of Montclair. Runners are expected to pass through Montclair Village along Mountain Blvd. starting around 8 AM. With the Village Farmers' Market opening at that time residents are encouraged to plan on attending both events, and are reminded that crossing Mountain Blvd. may be limited at times. The police will be closing off streets as runners pass through. Only one lane of the streets should be closed, but there will be some traffic disruptions.

We encourage Montclair residents to come out to support the runners as they pass. Yard parties, music, etc. are encouraged to show our Oakland spirit. The goal is to bring a positive and revenue-generating event to the City of Oakland.
