WIZZ AIR HACKNEY HALF 2024 SOLD OUT

Wizz Air Hackney Half 2024 is set to be another sell-out event, with over 20,000 general entry places snapped up in record-breaking time.

The iconic half-marathon will take place on Sunday 19 May, with 24,000 runners expected to take to the start line at Hackney Marshes and experience the vibrant atmosphere and community spirit of Hackney.

The only way to secure a place now is by running in support of one of our fantastic charity partners.

Places are still available via our Headline partner Alzheimer’s Society, plus our national charities including Cancer Research UK and Macmillan.

Runners can also raise money for a string of local charities, with Barts Charity, St Joseph’s Hospice Hackney, ReachOut UK, and Mind in the City Hackney and Waltham Forest, all benefiting from their limited charity places.

Other incredible charities with a select number of places still available include Single Homeless Project, Shelter, Leukaemia UK, St Mungos, The Zahra Trust, Movember, and Parkinsons UK. 

The Wizz Air Hackney Half Marathon is London’s largest and most popular half marathon and a growing number of the overall participants come from East London, with around one in four runners last year living within five miles of Hackney. 

The half-marathon is part of the annual two-day Hackney Moves festival, which offers the local community and beyond an incredible and free experience to enjoy across the weekend. From live music and entertainment to fitness classes, a Community 5K, the Schools Challenge and more, there’s something for everyone to enjoy across the weekend.
