It's Official: Wizz Air is the New Title Sponsor of Ealing Half Marathon

From Sunday 27 September, you'll see the Wizz Air name and colours across the start line, the finish line, and everywhere in between at Walpole Park – and over 8,000 participants are expected to join in across the EHM weekend. Why this partnership makes sense Since launching in 2012, Ealing Half Marathon has grown into west London's biggest running event, and has been voted the UK's best half marathon for three consecutive years. Closed roads, a brilliant crowd, and that unmistakable #EalingFeeling – it's what keeps thousands coming back every year. Wizz Air already sponsors major running events across Europe, including the Milan Marathon, Budapest Half Marathon and Rome Half Marathon – this makes Ealing Half Marathon their ninth. In 2025 alone, nearly 140,000 runners took part in a Wizz Air-sponsored event. Now it's our turn. What's in it for runners? Ealing Half Marathon now forms part of the WIZZ Run Series – run kilometres across Wizz Air-sponsored events and you could win a range of prizes, including a WIZZ All You Can Fly subscription, giving you access to an extensive number of flights for a set price across their whole network. Wizz Air title sponsor of Ealing Half Marathon What they're saying Yvonne Moynihan, Managing Director of Wizz Air UK: "Ealing Half Marathon is one of London's most popular running events, bringing together thousands of runners, supporters and local communities for a fantastic day. Like low cost aviation, running is accessible for all. As London's low-cost airline, we're proud to be the title sponsor of an event that brings people together, inspires participation and creates an electric atmosphere for runners and spectators alike. Whether you're chasing a personal best or taking on your first half marathon, we look forward to cheering on every runner at the start line this September." Sandra Courtney, Event Director of Ealing Half Marathon: "Fifteen years ago, we started the Ealing Half Marathon with a simple idea: to create something the whole community could be proud of. Having Wizz Air join us as Title Sponsor in 2026 is a genuine milestone – not just for the event, but for everyone who has run, volunteered, or stood on the pavement cheering a stranger on. Wizz Air connects people across Europe every single day, and that spirit of connection is exactly what the #EalingFeeling is about. We cannot wait to welcome them to Walpole Park in September." Tom Kerry, Chair and Trustee, We Run Ealing: "Ealing Half Marathon is a source of pride for the whole community. It brings together people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds to run on fully closed roads, with the best crowd support of any half marathon. Its reputation as London's friendliest, most inclusive and community-minded event attracts people from well beyond Ealing and London. With Wizz Air now on board as title sponsor, we can secure the future of this inspiring event, help it grow and share that #EalingFeeling far and wide." Ready to join us?
