Swansea Half Marathon 2024: All the road closures planned as thousands of runners take part

Swansea Half Marathon returns to the streets of the city on Sunday, June 9, in what will mark the 10th anniversary of the hugely popular event. Thousands are set to put their best feet forward in the hope of achieving their personal bests.

The half marathon event, which will also feature the Freedom Family Fun Run and the brand new Front Runner Five Miler, will begin at 9am, with the wheelchair race starting just before at 8.55am. The five mile event then starts at 9.15am, followed by the family event at 9.20am.

Starting in front of Swansea Arena, runners will head towards Singleton, then back through the city centre passing the historic Brangwyn Hall and castle ruins. You can read more about the event by clicking here. For the latest Swansea news, sign up to our newsletter here.
