10KM
Vellenoweth Green is the new home of the ASICS Waterfront Half Marathon from 2026 onwards. This huge new venue will allow the event to continue to grow and provides the anchor for our new, single-lap half marathon course.
Vellenoweth Green is a charming and sun‑drenched open space nestled across from the beach in St Heliers, Auckland. Framed by views of the Hauraki Gulf and Rangitoto Island, it’s a scenic setting beloved by locals and visitors alike. With Tamaki Drive closed to traffic for the event, the beach will provide a calming spot to gather your thoughts pre-race and an awesome cool-down when you finish.
Pack the swimmers and we'll see you there!
Venue Map
With such a large venue at our disposal, we can spread out a little bit and make room for all the exciting activations and attractions which make this event so special. The finish line is at the absolute geometric centre of the reserve with the start line on Tamaki Drive, just beyond the north-eastern corner of the reserve.
Important! As we get closer to the event, we'll refine this venue map to provide more detail of exactly where everything will be, so you can get yourself oriented prior to race day.
