Where we'll be on race day

When it comes to the Great North Run, we can't wait to cheer you on and meet you on the big day!

Don't forget...

Check out the official Great North Run website or their Event Guide for any last minute questions, and also to make sure you're clear on all your timings and where you need to go on the morning of the event.

Make sure you've planned your travel before and after the race carefully. Here's a few handy tips from our events team to help you get ready for the big day!

Our Team Marie Curie cheer point

We'll be the loudest cheerers on the route – plus we'll be covered in yellow, so you'll definitely spot us! This year, we'll see you at mile 2 (Tyne Bridge), mile 4 (Heworth) and mile 9 (John Reid roundabout).

Our charity marquee

We'll also have a dedicated Marie Curie marquee space in the charity village which is located on Avenue B17 in the finish area near the food section.

We’d love to see you at the marquee after the race so we can congratulate and thank you in person for all your hard work taking part and fundraising for Marie Curie, so come and join us for a well-deserved massage, food, a glass of bubbly and other refreshments!

Who will be there?

At our cheer point you'll be cheered on by members of our Newcastle, York and London teams - look out for the noisest, yellow cheer points on route!

At the marquee, you'll meet some members of our Newcastle team, who will be waiting to give you a warm welcome and congratulations - make sure you drop in on us and say hello.
