Access to Kenilworth Castle

New for 2025, runners will no longer receive their default 2 spectator tickets for Kenilworth Castle so you'll need to book free spectator tickets online instead. Access to Kenilworth Castle is strictly for ticket holders only, which are allocated on a first come, first served basis.

We know that historically a large number of runners don't use their spectator tickets, but we also get lots of requests for people who want to bring more than 2 people. To allow those who want to bring more people and allow us to plan for how many people we're expecting at the finish, we've introduced a simple online ticket booking.

Once the runner has registered for the event, you can sign up for tickets by clicking the link below.

Access to Kenilworth Castle opens at 8am on the morning of the race, and you must enter before 10am. Tickets are valid for the remainder of the day, but re-entry is not permitted.

All spectator tickets have now been allocated.

If you have not booked a ticket, you will not be granted entry to Kenilworth Castle.

You are welcome to watch the race at one of the nearby roads.
