The SANLAM CAPE TOWN MARATHON is the 8th Abbott World Marathon Majors in 2027!
The race joins seven of the sport’s most celebrated marathons, Tokyo, Boston, London, Sydney, Berlin, Chicago and New York, and will formally enter the series at its next edition on 23 May 2027. Yet while becoming the eighth Major is a singular achievement, it is the event’s standing as Africa’s first that defines this moment in history.
Running in this event is a way to experience the cultural highlights and the uniquely vibrant spirit of one of Africa's most visited cities. Arguably one of the most beautiful marathon routes in the world.
This event will be held on Sunday 23rd May 2027.
