Hi Emma,
I am also anxiously awaiting booking my trip for Disney World's Princess Half Marathon Weekend! Regardless of which event you run, this weekend is spectacular. I love the empowered vibe that permeates Disney World when all of the runners are in town and have thoroughly enjoyed being a spectator for the last couple of years in addition to running in the race a few times!
Race dates and registration times were announced in 2023 but the official event has not been added to the website yet. Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend will take place from February 20 to February 24, 2025. Registration for the event will open to
Club runDisney members on July 23, 2024, and general registration will open on July 30, 2024. I would expect to see the event added to the
official runDisney website soon to prepare for registration next month.
If you are in the process of planning your trip for this magical weekend, make sure to check out Disney Resort hotels located on the
Walt Disney World Monorail System. These resort hotels include
Disney's Contemporary Resort,
Disney's Polynesian Village Resort, and
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort and Spa. We have stayed at several different locations for race weekends in the past but my favorite experiences have been when I had quick access to the race or spectator areas via the monorail. In past years, the monorail starts running super early and is the quickest option for getting to the start line for the race.
Happy Planning,
Jenna
