Registration opens at 9am, Monday April 11, 2011!
General Entry:
At 9am on Monday 11th April 2011 12,000 entries will go on sale ONLINE on a ‘first-come-first-served’ basis. These “standard entry” places will close either when the 12,000 capacity is reached or at midnight on Saturday 30th April 2011, whichever comes first.
The 2011 Brighton Marathon sold out in just four weeks so we anticipate selling out even more quickly for our 2012 race. After these first 12,000 spots have been taken, we will be opening a ballot for an additional 3,000 places.
Register from 9am on Monday 11th April at www.brightonmarathon.co.uk
Ballot Place Entry:
At midnight on Saturday 30th April, or before if the 12,000 Standard Entry places have filled, a ballot will open for an additional 3,000 places. The ballot will remain open until 5pm on Tuesday 31st May 2011. Anyone interested in claiming one of the remaining 3,000 general entries must register their interest during this period.
The 3,000 successful ballot entrants will be drawn randomly from the ballot entries on Wednesday 1st June 2011 and will, that same day, be sent an email with a registration link and unique code. Each person will then have almost two weeks (until midnight on Friday 17th June 2011) to accept the place and complete their registration. Any places not accepted will be re-allocated into a second draw and the individuals informed. Any entries not taken up will be retained by us.
Charity Entry:
There will be 5,000 charities places available in the 2012 Brighton Marathon. For the 2011 event, over 230 charities bought places and for the 2012 event we anticipate this number will increase significantly. These will become available via our website charity page http://www.brightonmarathon.co.uk/charity.html after the 2011 race.
Guaranteed Expo Entry:
If you come to our Brighton Marathon Running and Lifestyle Exhibition on Saturday 9th April 2011 you will have the chance to purchase a unique code for £5 which will guarantee you an entry for the 2012 Brighton Marathon (so no need to rush at 9am on 11th April!). This £5 will be deducted from the balance of your 2012 entry fee once you complete the online process.
