What if running the 42.195 kilometers through the heart of the City of Light no longer meant price speculation? That’s the promise laid out by the organizers for the 50th edition: no more worries about “registration waves” that pushed prices up day after day. From now on, there will be a single, transparent fee for both the main race and the half-marathon.
To lace up for the asphalt of the Paris Marathon on Sunday, April 4, 2027, the bib fee is now set at €169. For the Hoka Paris Half Marathon scheduled for Sunday, March 7, 2027, the flat rate stands at €79.
In the past, runners had to feverishly track when ticket sales opened to snag a basic-entry bib, only to watch fees surge from €120 to over €180 in the closing months. Today, the price is kept strictly uniform for everyone, whether you apply on September 8 or September 30, 2026. Registration for the lottery phase is completely free: payment is only required if your name is drawn in the October 1 lottery, with a 72-hour window to confirm your commitment.
A major novelty this edition: social inclusion is entering the Paris race lineup. 1 000 solidarity bibs are being made available at a highly preferential rate of 50 € for the marathon and 25 € for the half-marathon. These entries are specifically reserved for scholarship students, beneficiaries of the RSA, and jobseekers residing in Île-de-France as well as nationwide, upon presentation of the required documents.
On the perks side, the iconic finisher medal is still bundled with the registration fee. By contrast, the race’s commemorative T-shirt has become optional: participants who want it can add it to their cart, with a portion of the proceeds from that option being donated directly to sport-for-integration associations in the Paris area.
