About this event
The Adelaide Marathon Festival is a major road-running event held in Adelaide on Sunday, 2 May 2027. The festival is scheduled to feature a full marathon, half marathon, 10 km event, 5 km fun run and walk, and a kids’ dash, providing options for experienced distance runners, recreational participants and families.
The marathon is an AIMS-certified event on a predominantly flat, two-lap course through Adelaide’s parklands and riverside precincts. The route is planned to pass landmarks and running corridors including Bonython Park, Adelaide Oval, War Memorial Drive, the River Torrens, the Botanic Park, Adelaide Zoo and the Uniloop before returning to the finish area.
Event activities are centred around Adelaide Oval, while the course connects several of Adelaide’s most recognisable open spaces and city attractions. The setting offers a scenic urban run through the Adelaide Park Lands, with a course designed to suit both competitive runners and participants focused on completing a personal challenge.
Participants in the festival’s events are scheduled to receive electronic timing, a finisher’s medal and a certificate, with age-category awards also planned. The certified marathon course may provide an opportunity for eligible runners to record a qualifying time for major international marathons.
