PORT FAIRY Marathon

& Community Running Festival
SUNDAY 21 FEB 2027

Registration opens on 23rd August 2026

Welcome to the Port Fairy Marathon, where running meets one of Australia's most beautiful coastal towns! 

With a marathon, half marathon, 10km, 5km and 1.5km dash, the weekend is designed for runners of every age and ability. Each entry sold supports the Port Fairy Consolidated School. Come for the run, stay for the weekend (or longer!) and experience an event that is as memorable as the destination itself.

Join us, we can’t wait to see you!
