Marathons, 10Ks & Running Events in Bengaluru
29 events matching right now across Bengaluru — mostly sports (28), tech (1). 3 are free.
The biggest race on Bengaluru's calendar is the TCS World 10K, which returns on Sunday 25 April 2027, according to the event's official website. Run by Procam International, it brings an elite international field and tens of thousands of amateur runners to the centre of the city, with an Open 10K and shorter fun-run categories. Before that, the Bengaluru Midnight Marathon is listed by race calendars for Saturday 5 December 2026, starting from KTPO in Whitefield, with distances from 5K to the full marathon run after dark; it is organised by Rotary Bangalore IT Corridor, and the date should be confirmed on the organiser's site. The city's main marathon, the Wipro Bengaluru Marathon, held its 13th edition on 27 September 2026, and the next is expected in the same season of 2027. Because Bengaluru (Bangalore) sits at about 900 metres and stays mild all year, there is a 5K, 10K or half marathon almost every weekend, along with trail runs in the hills around the city and cyclothons. Run clubs meet before sunrise in Cubbon Park, Lalbagh and around lakes such as Sankey Tank, Agara and Jakkur, and many are free to join. This page lists marathons, runs and fitness races across the city.

- Register early for the big races; popular categories close weeks before race day.
- Collect your bib at the expo on the dates the organiser announces; most large races don't allow race-day collection.
- Races start around sunrise and roads close early, so check the first metro on race morning or arrange a drop.
- Bengaluru's altitude and rolling roads make times slightly slower than at sea level; pace the first half conservatively.
- For night races in Whitefield, plan your ride home in advance, as the metro will have stopped by the time you finish.
