Head over to the TCS Sydney Marathon Running Show presented by ASICS for bib collection (which is your race number for event day) – the central hub for everything related to running. This immersive event not only functions as the collection point for race day essentials but also serves as your primary destination for running-related information, entertainment, and the chance to interact with our sponsors.
All participants must pick up their race number during the given dates and times, while non-participants can still visit the show. So come join us and prepare to be amazed by what this event has to offer – this is not your ordinary running expo.
