About the Event

Experience a truly unique spring race in one of the world's most beautiful gardens at Kew the Run in London on the weekend of 28-29 March 2026. Hosted at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, this two-day event offers the perfect combination of stunning scenery and a flat, fast course. Choose your challenge: enjoy a cherry blossom run in the accessible 10km on Saturday or tackle the classic 21.1km half marathon on Sunday, both starting and finishing among the iconic glasshouses and historic landscapes. The route winds through the gardens on flat roads and paths, offering unparalleled views of architectural treasures like the Palm House and Temperate House. Organized by Richmond RUN-FEST, the event welcomes runners and power walkers of all abilities and rewards every finisher with a commemorative t-shirt and medal.
