About
Green Point in Brighton serves as the start and finish, with Beach Road forming the main route: flat, direct, and on fast, closed roads along the Bayside coastline. The Brighton Beach Marathon retains its characteristic big-local-race atmosphere, with the 2026 event once again supporting the Peter MacCallum Cancer Foundation.
This course is suitable for runners aiming for a personal best, and also accommodates first-time marathoners. Expect AIMS-certified routes, waterside running, a lively atmosphere, and a finish line with enthusiastic crowds, where you can receive your medal and celebrate achieving your goal.
