2025 Royal Parks Half Marathon
12th October @ 9:00 am - 8:00 pm
General entry is through a ballot which closed on Friday 7 February but you can still take part by finding a worthy cause to represent.
Our run for charity page will be live with our charity partners on Thursday 13 February.
The stunning 13.1-mile route takes in many of the capital’s world-famous landmarks on closed roads, and four of London’s eight Royal Parks – Hyde Park, The Green Park, St James’s Park and Kensington Gardens.
The Royal Parks Half Marathon was set up by The Royal Parks charity as an annual fundraising initiative to help conserve and enhance London’s eight Royal Parks for everyone, while enabling charities of all sizes to be involved in a major challenge event.
Since then the event has exceeded all expectations, raising over £70 million for over 1,200 UK charities – including The Royal Parks, GOSH, and Mind. It’s a key part of raising awareness of The Royal Parks as a charity, funded by donations and events like the Royal Parks Half. Find out more about our charity partners here
The money raised by this event for The Royal Parks helps to keep the magic of eight vital green spaces alive, teach children and adults about the natural world, care for wildlife and conserve historic monuments.
