Sign this petition to help show local stakeholders the overwhelming desire to bring the Las Vegas Marathon finish line back to the heart of our city — back to Downtown Las Vegas.

The Las Vegas Marathon is more than just a race — it’s been a celebration of our city, our people, and our vibrant spirit. Runners from across the globe come here not only to test their endurance, but to experience the energy that only Las Vegas can offer.

The downtown finish line is where runners cross the line to cheering crowds, live music, local food, and the unmistakable pulse of our city’s culture. It’s where the Las Vegas community comes together — residents, business owners, volunteers, and visitors alike — to celebrate an achievement that belongs to everyone.

Recent course changes have taken the finish line away from downtown, moving this incredible moment of unity and celebration to a location that lacks the same connection to our city’s character and community. The result is a race that lacks many of the iconic race features that make this race feel so authentic and unique to Las Vegas.

Bringing the finish line back downtown is about honoring the legacy of one of the city’s most thrilling events. We, the runners, residents, and supporters of the Las Vegas Marathon, urge city officials to bring the finish area home — back to downtown Las Vegas, where it belongs.

Let’s restore the finish line that celebrates not just the race, but the city that defines it.
