About the 2027 Walt Disney World® Marathon Weekend
The courses run through Walt Disney World property, which means character sightings, themed entertainment zones and park scenery along the way. Each race distance has its own Disney character theme, so the atmosphere shifts depending on which event you enter. Runners doing the multi-race challenges cover the full spread across consecutive days.
The Health and Fitness Expo is a required stop before your first event, and it is where you collect your bib and any pre-purchased merchandise. It runs across several days leading up to race weekend, giving you a window to go on your own schedule rather than scrambling the morning of.
