Wolverhampton Half Marathon 2026

Wolverhampton Half Marathon Returns With City Centre Challenge

City race returns this September...

The Wolverhampton Half Marathon & 10K takes place in Wolverhampton on Sunday 6 September 2026, bringing both a half marathon and 10K back to the city centre for a well established late summer road race.

Starting and finishing on North Street, the route takes runners through the scenic and historic streets of Wolverhampton, offering a city centre course that blends accessible running with a sense of place. The layout supports a steady rhythm underfoot, making it suitable for those chasing a PB while still delivering a varied urban experience.

The event has built a reputation as a popular race in the West Midlands, attracting a wide mix of runners across both distances. With chip timing, accurate measurement and a strong event day setup, it continues to grow as a key fixture for those looking to race in a city environment.

Entries are open and demand is expected to be strong, with a 3.5 hour cut off for the half marathon and both races starting together in the morning. As a central location event with limited capacity, places are likely to fill as race day approaches.

With its straightforward logistics, city centre atmosphere and dual distance offering, the 2026 edition looks set to maintain its position as one of the region’s reliable and accessible race day options heading into the autumn season.

Entries are available via Stuweb here.
