Race Overview

The Christchurch Marathon is an annual road race held in central Christchurch, New Zealand, typically on a Sunday in mid-April. The current course starts on Park Terrace at the Armagh Street entrance to Hagley Park and runs two laps through the city center, passing the Christchurch Town Hall, Canterbury Museum, and the Avon River before finishing in Hagley Park's Special Events Area. The Full Marathon and Half Marathon distances are certified to World Athletics and AIMS standards, making the race a Boston Marathon qualifier. The 2026 edition drew a record 8,479 participants across all distances.
