TCS London Marathon
The TCS London Marathon in 2027 is planned as a two-day event on 24 and 25 April 2027. Organisers expect up to 100,000 runners to take part across the Marathon Weekend. The event is described as one of the Abbott World Marathon Majors and as part of a large annual one-day fundraising effort.
The organiser ran a ballot for places; the ballot for the 2027 Double TCS London Marathon was drawn and results were sent on Thursday 9 July. Runners offered a ballot place were required to confirm their details by 16:00 BST on Friday 31 July to secure entry. If the deadline was missed, alternative options include applying for a charity place. A limited number of charity places remained available at the time of publication.
The ballot included a double your chances option. If a runner chose that option and secured a place through the ballot, the entry fee was reduced from £79.99 to £49.99. Runners who did not choose the double option and were successful needed to pay the full £79.99 UK entry fee. International entrants were asked to pay an international entry fee of £275, which includes a carbon offset fee for international travel.
Applicants receive confirmation emails from Let's Do This. If a person is unsuccessful in both ballot draws they were offered a free hydration vest and the organiser noted the donation supports the London Marathon Foundation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
