Saturday 26 September 2026 has the 10 km and 4.5 km races; Sunday 27 September 2026 has the marathon and half marathon.

Terminal 21 Pattaya on North Pattaya Road is the start and finish, the bib pickup and the expo. The race pages show course maps, cut-off times and schedules. When we rechecked on 2026-08-23, start times were: marathon 03:30, half marathon 05:10, 10 km 05:45 and 4.5 km 06:30.

Arrival details

The race venue is Terminal 21 Pattaya on Pattaya Nuea Road. How you get there depends on your race day and where you stay.

Check the venue map for your distance, as start and finish layouts can differ.

Before you go

  • Register through the official link, not an old announcement. At our 23 August 2026 check it ran until 22:00 Thailand time on 12 September, subject to quotas.
  • Bib and souvenir pickup starts on Thursday 24 September 2026 at Terminal 21 Pattaya; check the pickup times before booking a late arrival.
  • Bring your registration confirmation and read the rules, cut-off time and start time for your distance.
  • For a hotel, look at the route and venue pages first, then choose between staying near North Pattaya or somewhere like Jomtien.

Still unconfirmed

We found no details on baggage, pacers or drink stations beyond what the race site shows, no refund or transfer policy, and no year-round training or club under the Pattaya Marathon name.
