Ealing Half Marathon new sponsorship!

Wizz Air has officially become the title sponsor of the Ealing Half Marathon, marking a significant milestone for this celebrated event.

Scheduled for Sunday, September 27, 2026, the marathon anticipates over 8,000 participants traversing the fully closed roads of Ealing.

Since its inception in 2012, the Ealing Half Marathon has evolved into West London's premier running event, earning the title of the UK's best half marathon for three consecutive years.

Sandra Courtney, the event director, expressed her enthusiasm: "Having Wizz Air join us as title sponsor in 2026 is a genuine milestone—not just for the event, but for everyone who has run, volunteered, or stood on the pavement cheering a stranger on."

This partnership integrates the race into the airline's WIZZ Run Series, connecting it with other major European running events.

Yvonne Moynihan, managing director of Wizz Air UK, stated: "We're proud to be the title sponsor of an event that brings people together and inspires participation."

Tom Kerry, chair and trustee of We Run Ealing, added: "With Wizz Air now on board as title sponsor, we can secure the future of this inspiring event, help it grow, and share that #EalingFeeling far and wide."

In addition to the half marathon, the weekend will feature the Trailfinders Ealing Mini Mile on Saturday, September 26, 2026, sponsored by Ealing Trailfinders Rugby Club.

This event offers young runners the opportunity to participate in one of the UK's most popular children's races.

For those looking to engage in Ealing fitness events and Ealing sporting events, the Ealing Half Marathon weekend provides a variety of activities suitable for all ages and abilities.

Whether you're a seasoned runner or new to the sport, this event embodies the community spirit and active lifestyle that Ealing is renowned for.
