About the race
The Hampton Court Palace Half Marathon takes place on Sunday 14 March 2027 at Hampton Court Palace. The event is a half marathon held on a multi terrain route that passes through palace gardens and along the Thames Path.
The course mixes grass, gravel and towpath surfaces and shows roughly 30 m of elevation gain. The event uses chip timing and has a three hour cut off. Minimum age to enter is 17 years.
Included with entry are a unique themed medal, free race photos, post race goodies and access to a bag drop. On course provisions include water at about 5k, 10k and 15k and portable toilets with accessible toilets available within the Palace Gardens. Results are published with national rankings and race photography is available free of charge.
Race day logistics include an event village with food and drink, a secure baggage marquee and informal warm up areas. Spectators can view runners from the event village, along the towpath within the early part of the route and again around mile eight before the finish in the event village.
The 2027 event supports The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity. An optional event t shirt is offered as an extra, produced in partnership with RT Kit. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
