Gazley Volkswagen Wellington Marathon
The Gazley Volkswagen Wellington Marathon is scheduled for 28 June 2026 in Wellington, the national capital. The event offers multiple race options over a course the organisers describe as flat and fast. The full marathon will also serve as the official Wellington Championship for 2026, with eligibility limited to current members of an Athletics Wellington club.
Available race distances include:
- 10K
- 21K
- 42K
- Kids Mile
Every finisher receives a medal. The event promotes safety and on-course support and highlights scenic sections including Wellington wharves. Organisers provide a Training Hub with resources from an official running partner, and there are pace teams listed among race information.
The event has an ongoing charity association with the New Zealand Heart Foundation. Participants can raise funds for that charity as part of their entry. Limited edition event merchandise is offered for 2026 entries. Volunteer roles are available for pre-race registration on 27 June and for race day on 28 June.
Additional event information covers entry options, race rules, course details, pace teams, training guidance, visitor information and event history. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
