The most comprehensive list of Marathons in and near Manchester in 2026 - 2027. Find your perfect Manchester Marathon race!

Few cities in the North West are better set up for marathon training than Manchester. The Bridgewater Canal towpath lets you settle into a long rhythm without interruption, and if you've put in miles along Salford Quays or out past MediaCityUK, you'll know how well this city suits a runner who wants to lock into a pace and hold it. Heaton Park is the place to go when you want to test yourself with some hill repeats. Not sure if you’re ready for the full distance? Half marathons in Manchester are a good place to find out.

Have a browse through the listings below and find one that fits. If you're still building your fitness, 10K runs in Manchester and 5K races in Manchester will keep you busy in the meantime.
