Last Updated: July 13, 2026
If you run, walk or cycle in Noida, you already know the problem: the events are scattered across half a dozen Instagram pages, WhatsApp groups and organiser websites, and half of them don’t confirm venue or route details until the week of the race. This guide pulls every major running, walking and cycling event in Noida and Greater Noida — from the flagship Noida Half Marathon to free community runs like the Swatantra Spirit Promo Run — into one place, updated as dates and venues are confirmed.
A quick note on why so many entries below say “venue to be confirmed”: road races in Noida need a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from Noida Police and, depending on the route, clearance from the Noida Authority. These are typically granted only a few days before the event, which is why organisers themselves often can’t lock the exact start point or road-closure map until close to race day. We’ll update each entry the moment organisers confirm it — bookmark this page rather than a single social post, since those tend to go stale.
For events beyond running and cycling — comedy shows, exhibitions, festivals and more — see our complete Noida events guide for 2026, and check our weekend events roundup for what’s on this Saturday and Sunday.
