About New York City Marathon 2027
Runners move through all five boroughs before finishing in front of thousands of spectators lining the final stretch. The course draws elite athletes chasing fast times alongside amateurs running for charity or personal milestones, and the crowd energy shifts block by block as different neighbourhoods turn out to cheer.
Roads close early and stay shut for hours, so the streets fill with a mix of runners, supporters, and locals who treat the whole day as an informal street festival.
Where to stay nearby
Hell's Kitchen sits closest to the finish line and gets booked up fastest, with nine hotels on offer for those who want to be within easy walking distance of the closing stages. Gramercy Park is a short trip further out but still close enough to reach the action on foot, with five hotels available. North Bergen, just across the Hudson, has far more choice with 167 hotels, though you'll need a bus, PATH train, or short drive to get into Manhattan on race day. Given road closures across the course, it's worth planning your route to the start or finish in advance, whichever base you choose.
Hell's Kitchen — about 1 km away
Hell's Kitchen is a short walk from Midtown's main attractions, ideal if you want to minimize travel time and maximize flexibility around your event schedule.
Gramercy Park — about 3 km away
Gramercy Park sits a short distance south, offering a quieter, more residential feel while still keeping the venue within easy reach via a brief commute.
North Bergen — about 5 km away
North Bergen, across the Hudson River, provides significantly more hotel options at various price points. Expect a short drive or regular bus and PATH transit to reach the venue, making it a practical choice for budget-conscious visitors willing to accept a slightly longer journey.

History
The TCS New York City Marathon, first held in 1970, is the largest marathon in the world — the 2024 race recorded more than 55,000 finishers — and one of the seven Abbott World Marathon Majors. Founded by Fred Lebow, it began as a low-key event of several laps around Central Park before expanding in 1976 to the five-borough route that now defines it.
Runners cross the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge from Staten Island, head up through Brooklyn and Queens, over the Queensboro Bridge into Manhattan, briefly into the Bronx and home to the finish in Central Park. The point-to-point course has a famously early and remote start at Fort Wadsworth, reached by the Staten Island Ferry or official buses from Manhattan.
Early November usually brings crisp running weather, and the city fills for race weekend. The sensible base is Manhattan, near the finish and the expo at the Javits Center, with an early journey out to the start.
