Disney has just announced the remainder of the dates for their Disney World 2026 races, as well as the first few races on the way for 2027 (including virtual races!). If you’re planning to race, we suggest putting these registration dates on your calendar, because once tickets go on sale, it’s very likely they’ll run out fast!

- 2026 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend (January 7th-January 11th)
- 2026 Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend (February 26th-March 2nd)
