RUN THE CAPITAL. 🏃‍♀️🏃

🚨 Registrations are NOW OPEN! 🚨

We’re excited to announce entries for The Canberra Times Marathon Festival 2027 are now open, across two days – Saturday 10 April and Sunday 11 April 2027. 🤩

For more than 50 years, runners have taken to the streets of Canberra for Australia’s oldest city marathon. In 2027, thousands will come together again to run on the closed roads of our nation’s capital.

Choose from four AIMS-certified distances – Marathon (42.195K), Half Marathon (21.1K), Runner’s World 10K and Charterpoint 5K. Whether you’ve run Canberra before or 2027 will be your first, we have a start line waiting for you.

Saturday kicks off the weekend with the Runner’s World 10K, Charterpoint 5K and Kids Dash, before the Marathon and Half Marathon take centre stage on Sunday.

And if one start line isn’t enough, you can back up and take on a second distance across the weekend. 💪🏼

We can’t wait to welcome you to Canberra and see you on the start line.

Register now through the link below. Run the Capital.
