About the race
The adidas Manchester Marathon is scheduled for Sunday 18 April 2027. The event is presented by the organisers as the UK's flattest major marathon and the route is described as offering significant potential for personal best times. Organisers report large on-route support and state there are over 150,000 supporters along the course. The event regularly attracts tens of thousands of runners; the organiser lists the field as 40,000+ and describes the race as the second largest in the UK and fourth largest in Europe.
For 2027 the organiser states that public places sold out during the registration window, and additional places are available through official charity partners.
