General Information
Information about the Tokyo Marathon 2025 for anyone involved.
Art Project
Last year, we held a Drawing Runner Exhibition, displaying croquis by students (artists) of the Tokyo University of the Arts that depicted the runners as they started the race and the atmosphere of the venue during the Tokyo Marathon 2024. Starting with this initiative, we launched the Tokyo Marathon Foundation Art Project, which explores the possibilities of art and sports.
For this year's race, we are planning new projects such as making support goods from waste and recycled materials, as well as art production by Tokyo University of the Arts student runners. We are working towards the realization of a community well-being society. Through the combination of Art x Sports, as well as involving various people, things and events, we will appeal to young people and create opportunities for children to become interested in sports and more. And by collaborating with experts in the varied fields of art, creation and technology, together we will gaze at a new generation as we develop together dynamically. Be sure to stay tuned.
