About The Mall

The men's and women's marathons and cycling road races will start and finish in The Mall, an iconic location in central London.

It was created as a ceremonial route in the early 20th century. The route runs from Buckingham Palace to Trafalgar Square and is a popular backdrop for formal ceremonies and major sporting events, including the London Marathon.

The colour of the surface here is red to give it the effect of a red-carpet sprawled leading up to the palace.
