AU Jaipur Marathon 2027

The AU Jaipur Marathon returns on Sunday, 14 February 2027 for its 18th edition, bringing a major multi-distance road-running programme to Rajasthan's Pink City. The event is an initiative of Sanskriti Yuva Sanstha and World Trade Park and is promoted by IIEMR. Its programme includes the full marathon, international half marathon, 10K, 5K, a celebration Dream Run and new Buddy Run formats over 42K and 21K.

The principal road races use Albert Hall South Gate on JLN Marg as the race venue. The full marathon and 42K Buddy Run start at 3:00am IST, followed by the half marathon and 21K Buddy Run at 5:00am. The detailed race-day timetable lists the IIEMR 10K at 6:50am and the 5K at 7:05am, with the Dream Run at 7:20am. The early marathon start places much of the long-distance racing in Jaipur's pre-dawn hours.

The organiser provides electronic RFID timing for timed categories, with gun time applying to elite marathoners and net time to open-category runners. Medical teams, ambulances and hydration stations are scheduled along the course. Full and half marathon participants must be at least 18 on race day.

Registration opened on 2 August 2026 and the organiser lists a closing date of 5 February 2027, or earlier when a category fills. There are 3,000 full-marathon and 7,000 half-marathon places advertised. Important pricing update (checked 25 October 2026): the original 50% early-bird campaign ending on 2 October has expired. A separate organiser promotion advertises 40% off through 30 November 2026, with the individual marathon/half-marathon/10K/5K priced at ₹1,800 / ₹1,500 / ₹900 / ₹600 respectively; the organiser's current online registration form also displays standard prices of ₹3,000 / ₹2,500 / ₹1,500 / ₹1,000. The promotion may depend on booking conditions and may not appear automatically. Confirm the final charge in the official checkout before payment.

For Buddy Run pairs, the same organiser promotion advertises ₹3,000 for 42K, ₹2,700 for 21K, ₹1,500 for 10K and ₹900 for 5K; the booking form displays standard pair prices of ₹5,000, ₹4,500, ₹2,500 and ₹1,500 respectively. These are prices per team of two, not per runner. Entry places and discount availability may change.

Participants need their registration confirmation and valid government-issued photo identification; kits are not couriered or distributed on race morning.
