We welcome you to the official internet site of the Airborne March!

Here you will find all the information about the Airborne March, the world's largest one-day marching event.
These remembrance marches are held every year on the first Saturday in September at the village of Oosterbeek (near Arnhem) in The Netherlands.
With distances of 10, 15, 25 and 40 kilometres, it is an "all-age"-march.

You will be accompanied by military, police, scouting and civilian groups and individual participants from over 17 different countries.
The routes are laid out through the several villages of the municipality of Renkum in the Netherlands, along the battlefields and drop zones of the operation Market Garden of September 1944.
Start and finish are in the sports park Hartenstein (behind the Airborne Museum) at Oosterbeek.

We have decided not to give you any information about the Battle of Arnhem or the Operation Market Garden on this site, as there are much better equipped websites already. If you follow the links on our 'links'-page, you will get there straight away.

Please click one of the buttons to navigate through our site and we hope to meet you on the first Saturday in September at Oosterbeek.

Here you can see the documentary of the 62nd edition made by the local broadcasting company Omroep Gelderland©. Unfortunately it is only in Dutch but the images tell the story as well.
With thanks to Wilma van Dillen, Sandra Bulter, Irene ten Voorde and their teams.Here you will find the broadcast of the 63rd edition in 2009.
