Frequently asked questions
How do I enter these events?
Many of the biggest events use a ballot or lottery, some need a qualifying time, and some sell out within minutes. Where the entry dates are known, they are on the event page. Always enter through the official website of the organiser.
Where do the dates come from?
From the organisers or governing bodies where they have published them, and otherwise from reliable media and event listings. Each event page links to its source and says whether the dates are confirmed or provisional.
How often are the dates updated?
The dates were last checked on 2 November 2026. When an edition finishes, the next one is added, and the countdowns on the pages are calculated live in your browser.
Why are some dates marked provisional?
Some organisers have not yet confirmed final dates, or published sources disagree by a day or two. We show the best available date and flag it, so you know to check the official site before you book.
Dates may change. Check the official website of each event before you book travel or enter.
