The Running Show

When the time comes you'll need to collect your Event Pack!

The 2025 TCS London Marathon Running Show will take place from Wednesday 23 to Saturday 26 April at Excel London.

We strongly recommend coming Wednesday or Thursday to avoid queues, as it gets extremely busy on Friday and Saturday.

You won't be able to take part in the TCS London Marathon if you do not collect your Event Pack, as it contains your bib number. You will not be able to collect this on Event Day. There are no exceptions.

If you can't attend, someone can on your behalf – details of how to do this will be in your Participant Guide. 

If you are coming on Saturday allow ample time as this is your last chance to pick up your Event Pack.

The show is a great opportunity to calm any pre-event nerves by listening to expert talks, doing some last-minute shopping, and get the all-important "I'm running the Marathon!" selfie!
