We’re thrilled to announce the Sydney Marathon as a candidate race for the Abbott World Marathon Majors. If successful, Sydney Marathon will join an esteemed group of races, Tokyo Marathon, Boston Marathon, TCS London Marathon, BMW-Berlin Marathon, Bank of America Chicago Marathon, and TCS New York City Marathon. No city in the world has a better combination of natural beauty, love of sport, and iconic infrastructure for hosting a marathon than Sydney!

Take part in a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and run across the famous Sydney Harbour Bridge uninterrupted by traffic, finishing at the steps of the world-famous Sydney Opera House. Furthermore, in 2024 the event boasts a fresh marathon course, a loyalty rewards program specifically for marathon runners, an extended cut-off time of seven hours, heightened entertainment on the course, and an international travel network to assist in getting you to the start line.
