TCS London Marathon
The TCS London Marathon is presented as one of the Abbott World Marathon Majors and is described as part of the world’s biggest annual one-day fundraising event. The event for 2027 is scheduled for 24 April 2027. The organiser offers a variety of ways to experience Event Day, including running, hiking, open water swimming, team relays and a virtual option called MyWay.
The 2027 entry process included a ballot system, with a double your chances option that entered applicants into a second draw. Applicants who chose the double option paid a reduced entry fee if they secured a place through the ballot, with the domestic fee reduced from £79.99 to £49.99. International entries have a stated fee of £275 which includes a carbon offset fee for international travel. If an applicant was unsuccessful in both ballot draws they received a complimentary hydration vest said to be worth over £100 and a donation supporting the London Marathon Foundation. Confirmation emails and payment receipts are issued via Let's Do This. A limited number of charity places remained available. The event also relies on volunteers to marshal the route, hand out water and support finish-line duties. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
