São Silvestre 100th edition sells out 50,000 spots in record time | OneFootball

On the opening day of registrations, in less than six hours, the São Silvestre International Race sold out its 50,000 spots. In its hundredth edition, the largest street race in Latin America and one of the most important in the world will set a new record on December 31 in São Paulo. The number surpasses the 37,500 registered participants of the previous edition, the highest mark to date.

Registrations were made exclusively through the official São Silvestre website and the Ticket Sports app, the official sales platform. With a focus on providing the best experience for participants, registrations were made available in a single batch, with no price changes throughout the sales period.

The mark of 50,000 registered participants reinforces São Silvestre's strength as one of the largest street races in the world. Faced with the expectation of securing a spot in the race, more than 150,000 people joined the virtual waiting line. Registrations sold out before 4 PM (Brasília time) this Thursday, less than six hours after opening.

To make the historic edition even more accessible and safe for a record audience, the Race's organization coordinated a special plan to expand the structure, maintaining the traditional course of recent years. Thus, the start will continue to be conducted in waves separated by participants' pace, allowing for better distribution of athletes along the course to ensure the flow of the 50,000 runners.

To date, Brazil has achieved 30 victories among men and women in the São Silvestre. Last year, the races were won by Kenyans Wilson Too, among men, and Agnes Keino, among women.
