TCS London Marathon
The TCS London Marathon is a marathon event taking place on Sunday 26 April 2026. It is one of the Abbott World Marathon Majors and is held as part of an annual one-day fundraising event. The event lists TAG Heuer as the official timekeeper and shows a range of commercial partners including TCS, New Balance, Abbott and other sponsors.
Entries, ballot and event support
The 2026 ballot was drawn and ballot result emails were sent on Thursday 19 June. Entrants who were offered a place needed to register and make payment by 16:00 BST on 10 July 2025. The published entry fees note a UK entry fee of £79.99 and an international entry fee of £225. The organiser also offers charity places and a virtual TCS London Marathon option.
Volunteers support the event by marshalling the route, handing out water and awarding finishers’ medals. Training plans and participant guidance materials are available for people preparing for the marathon. If an entrant is unsuccessful in the ballot process, the organiser provides a premium winter running top and a donation is made to the London Marathon Foundation.
