Race for Life Oxford 2027
Race for Life Oxford takes place at University Parks in Oxford on Sunday 27 June 2027. The event is organised by Cancer Research UK and offers two measured distances.
Available distances:
- 10k : double lap of the course
- 5k
The start and finish areas are on firm but slightly uneven grass. The course is predominantly on pathways and road, with sections on tarmac, hardstanding paths, grass and woodland tracks. The 10k route uses a double lap of the same course and the lap split point may become congested. The route is described as entirely flat, though grass and woodland sections can become soft or muddy in wet weather and slippery underfoot.
General event parking is not provided. Limited Blue Badge parking is available on grass approximately 350 m from the event site. Volunteer parking is limited and road closures affect access on the day. Public transport and cycle access are available; the nearest train station is Oxford, about a 22 minute walk from the park.
Facilities listed for the event include refreshments, toilets, dogs allowed, pushchair suitability, and wheelchair access with assistance. Bag drop, showers and general parking are not available. Entry fees for the published earlybird categories appear between £5.50 and £8.74, and the minimum fundraising target is £50. Participants receive event information, fundraising materials, a customisable back sign, training support, and a Race for Life medal.
