Course

In 2023 we began introducing improvements to the Brighton Marathon course. For 2024 we have continued to implement improvements and have created a course which we hope will have the best participant experience with brilliant atmosphere and spectator support, and will limit disruption to the city.

The event once again begins in Preston Park and goes north towards Withdean before taking participants south through the city and past some of Brighton's most iconic landmarks including the Pavilion.

The route then goes into the neighbourhood of Kemptown and follows the coast to Ovingdean past white cliffs before turning back for a breathtaking view of the city.

Participants will then run west along the coast past the Brighton Pier, West Pier and i360 before making their way into the supportive neighbourhoods in Hove.

The Finish Line is back on the seafront at Hove Lawns, taking finishers past the infamous beach huts into the beach village for celebrations.
