HOKA Hackney Half
The HOKA Hackney Half is a closed-road half marathon held on 16 May 2027 in Hackney, East London. The course covers 21.1km through the borough on a flat, flowing route with aid stations and chip timed results.
On-course support includes pacers, run crew cheer zones, live music and cheering crowds. The event provides a race shirt, finisher medal and timed results. Runners pass through closed roads with route-side music and spectator zones.
The finish area opens into a festival village at Hackney Marshes featuring food and drink, fitness activities, talks, partner activations and music. The broader HOKA Hackney Moves weekend also includes a 10K night run, a 5K community event, a schools challenge and a trail event, with some elements listed as free or free for certain attendees.
General entries for previous editions sold out quickly; the organiser uses pre-registration and staged entry windows to allocate places for future events. Charity places are available through partner charities, and fundraising is part of the event offering. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
