    Not announced

    Not announced for 2027, and no edition is scheduled. In past editions charities held their own places, which riders could take by committing to a minimum fundraising target; when the 2025 edition was cancelled, charities holding places carried over from 2024 were offered a refund or London Marathon charity places instead.
