If you entered the London Marathon 2026 public ballot, here’s when you will hear if you’ve been drawn to run.

For those who entered themselves into the London Marathon 2026 ballot after seeing this year’s festivities results are set to be released very soon.

April’s race was one of the largest marathons in the capital yet, with more than 55,000 runners taking part in the 26.2 mile course around the city.

Each year there is a public ballot which allows hopeful runners to put their name down for a chance to take part. The draw for the 2026 London Marathon closed on May 2.

Those who are lucky enough to be drawn in the ballot will join the more than a million others who have completed the course since the first race in 1981.

When will the 2026 London Marathon ballot results be announced?

The date that the 2026 London Marathon ballot results will be released is still yet to be confirmed.

However when the ballot opened in April, TCS London Marathon stated the results would be released in early July.

While July is fast approaching, a date for the 2026 ballot results has still not been confirmed. But it’s likely they could be released in the first week of the month.

For this year’s race TCS London Marathon revealed the date entrants can expect results the day before they were released. Therefore hopeful runners may want to keep an eye on the event’s social media pages for updates.
