Below you will find two handy maps, the first showing how participants can access Bag Drop and how to access the Start, the second map shows the finish line process along Oxford  Road. 

To assist those unable to leave baggage at their accommodation or with friends and family we will again be operating a bag drop for the 2026 adidas Manchester Marathon. Like last year it will be a point-to-point route. You can find out more about the bag drop process here.
