Antrim Coast Half Marathon
Sunday, 23 August 2026
Larne, Co. Antrim, NI
The Antrim Coast Half Marathon on 23 August 2026 is one of the most scenic races in Northern Ireland, on a breathtaking course along the Antrim Coastline.
Starting on Glenarm Road by Larne Town Park, the flat and fast 13.1 mile course sweeps into Larne harbour and through Larne town before moving onto the world famous Antrim Coast Road.
The coast's stunning landscapes and prominent landmarks feature in many movies and television series, including HBO's Game of Thrones, who used the area extensively as one of the filming locations.
New in 2026 is the Antrim Coast 5K, (a World Athletics Label Race), open to all runners aged 17+ and fully inclusive of wheelchair athletes. The 5km starts and finishes in Larne Town Centre on a flat, fast route that winds through the vibrant town and harbour area.
