The ABP Newport Marathon Festival will return for 2025 on Sunday 13 April. New for 2024 – the event has been expanded into an exciting festival of running with marathon, half marathon, 10K and junior race options.
The popular race is a firm favourite on the Welsh running calendar, boasting one of the flattest marathon courses in Europe. Over 70% of all finishers have claimed a PB on a route that offers iconic landmarks, like the city’s Transporter Bridge and the stunning scenery of the Gwent Levels – with its coastal wildlife and picturesque medieval villages. For those keen to improve their time over 26.2 miles, the course has been named in a list of ‘10 of the fastest marathons in the world’ by Runners World.
The fast and fun supporting half marathon and 10K races give runners of all abilities the opportunity to experience the marathon atmosphere, without committing to the challenging 26.2-mile distance.

Working closely with clinicians and other professionals focused on improving the lives of people affected by TSC

Thanks to the TSA, no-one affected by TSC should ever feel alone.
