PARKING COMMUNICATION TO RUNNERS – ARRIVE EARLY ON RACE MORNING FROM 3AM

Welcome to The Edenvale Marathon 2026.

The OFFICIAL Parking is situated at the Dowerglen High School, on the corner of First Avenue and Hendrik Potgieter Street. It is a short 800m walk to the start or to your club gazebo on the finish field.

The parking area is managed and offers toilets for your convenience. You can also buy yourself a pre-race coffee, available from our coffee venders. Please support them.

The parking facility is managed by Essentially Edenvale, a community-based organisation striving for a cleaner, greener and safer Edenvale.

Parking will be open from 03h00 – get there early and avoid any unnecessary race day frustrations!

NOTE: We kindly ask you to please not park on people's pavements. The EMPD will be clamping illegally parked vehicles! You have been warned!
