Take part in the Newport Half Marathon for Shine!

The ABP Newport Marathon Festival offers a thrilling festival of running with marathon, half marathon and 10K race options.

The popular Half Marathon race is a firm favourite on the Welsh running calendar, boasting a flat and fast course. The route passes iconic landmarks, including the city’s historic Castle, the traditional Victorian Market, the Transporter Bridge, modern riverfront development, and the International Sports Village.

It also takes in the stunning scenery of the Gwent Levels – with its coastal wildlife and picturesque medieval villages. 

Newport is a city steeped in history, with a multicultural vibe – complete with a rich musical heritage, artisan breweries, stylish shopping and leisure facilities, plus the largest indoor market regeneration in Europe, packed with local and independent stalls.

You can expect a well-organised event with a fantastic atmosphere and a warm Welsh welcome for participants and spectators alike.

There's also a 1-mile and junior races on the same day, including a Toddler Dash, a family Fun Run and a Future Challengers race. For places in these, please go to the organiser's website, choose your event, register and then let us know.
