After the end of the race, all participants and visitors continued their wine and local gastronomic specialties tasting, at the Grand Terrace. Many participants took part in interesting wine workshops, sailed the Wine Boat, went on wine picnics, and organized a fun competition in rolling wine barrels, which was followed by lots of cheering and laughter.
Participants in this year’s Wine Marathon have joined the fundraising campaign to build a parental home in Belgrade for children with cancer by downloading the „Pruzi korak“ application, which registered the kilometers all contestants passed, which is being cashed by Serbian donor companies and donated to those in need.
The Wine Marathon is a unique event that combines sports, wine, gastronomy and music in a fun way that brings joy.
