Run the 2026 Walt Disney World® Marathon Weekend with Dream Travel Canada!

After a record-selling 2025 event, we are happy to announce that we are now selling the 2026 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend with guaranteed entries!

There’s something very magical about running through the Disney World parks! Especially when you cross the finish line and they put that heavy medal around your neck! That’s right, if you’re looking for the best bling in the business, you have to run a runDisney race! And, we have your guaranteed bib into the 5K, 10K, Half Marathon, Marathon and the Dopey Challenge!

We're sure you know what the Dopey Challenge is, but just in case, participants will run the 5K on Thursday, the 10K on Friday, the Half Marathon on Saturday and the Marathon on Sunday for a total of 6 race shirts and 6 race medals! Yes, we did the math right: 4 race day shirts and medals PLUS a bonus Goofy Challenge shirt and medal and then the Dopey Challenge shirt and medal! Now that's magical!

2026 also marks our 22nd year in business and we've been working with runDisney since the very beginning!

2024 sold out in record time and 2025 crushed 2025, so don’t delay, grab your guaranteed entry today as we will sell out and quickly!

*2 Runners Sharing – A package for a couple or two friends, both of whom are running with entries from Dream Travel and sharing one room. Price is per person.

*1 Runner/1 Non Runner – A package for either someone traveling on their own and wants their own room, or, one runner and one additional person in the room who either is not running or already has an entry via the lottery or time qualification. Price is the total for both people. If you want more than 2 people in your room you will need to upgrade to a larger one. Contact us for details and rates.

IMPORTANT NOTE on PRICING: Although we have our guaranteed entries and rates now from runDisney for the races, Disney won't release hotel rates for this event until as late as June! That said, we are guestimating the package rates, but we are also guaranteeing our rates will not increase by more than 5% or you may request to cancel without penalty and receive a full refund. Assuming our rates stay as advertised or within 5%, our cancellation policy below stands. Our guestimates for 2025 and 2024 were spot on, so we're hopeful that will be the case again for 2026.
