London Kilt Run 2027
The London Kilt Run is a Scottish themed social 10k run around central London, starting and finishing at the Robert Burns Statue in Victoria Embankment Gardens. The event is hosted by London Themed Run and the Kilted Personal Trainer and is described as the fifth annual edition of this route.
The route runs clockwise from the Robert Burns Statue, with a course that reaches Lambeth Bridge and continues down to Tower Bridge before returning along the River Thames. The route passes multiple Scottish-themed London sites, including Scotland Place and New Scotland Yard on Whitehall, Dover House, Banqueting House, 10 Downing Street, the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey (Robert Burns bust in Poet’s Corner), the London Scottish Regiment & Museum, Shakespeare’s Globe, Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, London Bridge, and Scotland House at Blackfriars.
Wearing a kilt is not required, though tartan and other Scottish interpretations are welcomed and a prize is planned for the best Scottish-themed outfit. The finish is back at the Robert Burns Statue; many participants traditionally gather at a nearby pub afterwards. Tickets are listed at £30 and the event is in person. The organiser notes a no refunds policy. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
