Run Wigan Festival | Wigan Half Marathon

All routes will all start and finish on Market Street in Wigan town centre. Prizes will be awarded for the first, second and third male and female runners, as well as the winners of a number of other categories, and there will be an awards ceremony for the winners held on the day on the main stage in the town centre. There will also be live entertainment on stage from some fantastic local bands, and the continental food markets will be in town, so we’d encourage all runners and spectators to remain in the town centre after the run to make the most of the unique atmosphere. All Half Marathon runners will receive a free finishers’ goody bag, T-shirt and a medal. All 5k and 10 mile runners will receive a medal and refreshments and all runners who have registered for the Family Mile and have a runner numbers will receive a Joining Jack medal.

Shower facilities are available for runners in the Wigan Life Centre after the event, although please be aware that you will need to bring swimwear to use these. There will also be a baggage area for all runners to safely leave their belongings in Wigan Life Centre (South Site).
