For once – Rubix does things by half!

Rubix VT is proud to be the headline sponsor for the 2024 Brighton Half Marathon.

As the headline sponsor for the next three years, Rubix VT believes the new partnership provides the perfect opportunity to give back to the local community in supporting runners and their fundraising efforts. As well as supporting the official partner charity, the Sussex Beacon, Rubix will be donating race places to The Starr Trust.

Martin Harrigan, Rubix VT Brighton Half Marathon Race Director, said: “It’s incredibly exciting to announce that Rubix VT will be our new headline sponsor for the next three years.

“I know Nick and the team at Rubix VT have a real passion for running and have shown their support for a range of community initiatives across Sussex – values which we, as an event owned by a charity, find incredibly important.

“For the race team, this partnership is a big vote of confidence in our plans for the race, and it provides a fantastic platform to enable us to continue to develop the event over the next three years.”

Nick Poyner, Managing Director at Rubix VT, commented: “The Brighton Half Marathon is a fantastic community event with an incredible heritage with fundraising and charity very much at its core. An opportunity to support The Sussex Beacon and all the other amazing charities that participate in the event was such an easy decision to make.”

Taking place on Sunday 25 February 2024, the Rubix VT Brighton Half Marathon, now in its 34th year, is a UKA-certified event that features a stunning seafront course in one of the UK’s most vibrant cities.

Every year 10,000 runners flock to Brighton to enjoy the fast, flat 13.1mile seafront course. In 2024 the Rubix VT Brighton Half Marathon will also feature a wheelchair race, a one-mile youth race and new this year, a charity relay race.

As well as headline charity partner The Sussex Beacon, runners can support over 30 other charities. General entries and charity places for 2024 are available now from The Rubix VT Brighton Half Marathon website, however organisers advise runners to enter soon before the race sells out.
