The Canterbury Trail Marathon takes runners out through the Kentish countryside south of the city, starting and finishing at the Canterbury Christ Church University Sports Centre on Pilgrims Way. The 2026 edition is on Sunday 25 October, the weekend right after the Canterbury Festival wraps up.
Trail and running events like this bring competitors and their families into the area for the weekend, often booking accommodation close to the start line rather than in the city centre itself. Worth factoring into pricing for late October alongside the Festival.
