Montreal Marathon, live.

From Parc Jean-Drapeau to Parc Maisonneuve

The Marathon Beneva de Montréal fills three days in September 2027, from a mile race on Friday evening to the marathon and half marathon on Sunday morning.

The race weekend is organised by COURONS, a team that has spent many years designing and delivering major sporting events across Quebec. The 2027 edition runs from Friday 17 to Sunday 19 September, with an expo before the races and events for every level, from a one kilometre children's run to the full marathon.

The marathon and the half marathon both start at 7:45 on Sunday 19 September at Parc Jean-Drapeau and finish at Parc Maisonneuve. The marathon has about 172 metres of climbing, a six hour limit, a recommended age of 18 and a cap of 6,600 entries. The half marathon climbs about 78 metres and has a four hour limit, with the same recommended age of 18.

Saturday 18 September belongs to the shorter distances. The 5 km starts at 8:30 and the 10 km at 9:45, both on Rue Sherbrooke with a finish at Parc Maisonneuve. The 5 km has a one hour limit and a recommended age of 14, and the 10 km a two hour limit and a recommended age of 16. A 1 km run for children follows at 11:15 at the Jardin Botanique, and the weekend opens with a mile race at 18:00 on Friday 17 September.

The routes are published in the COURONS app, and the organiser invites supporters to cheer at the start, at the finish or along the course, where local running clubs animate hotspots near the metro exits. After the races, music, refreshments and activities wait on the esplanade at the finish line.

On Livebib you can follow a participant who chooses to share their own live position from the phone they carry. This is not the organiser's timing, and the official results come from COURONS.
