Major Sports Events Committee awards "M" Mark status to "Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon 2026" and "Longines Hong Kong International Horse Show 2026"

The following is issued on behalf of the Major Sports Events Committee:

The Major Sports Events Committee (MSEC) has awarded "M" Mark status to the "Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon 2026" (January 18) and the "Longines Hong Kong International Horse Show 2026" (January 30 to February 1).

The Chairman of the MSEC, Mr Wilfred Ng, said today (January 12), "With the beginning of 2026, more 'M' Mark events will follow one after another. Among them, the Hong Kong Marathon stands out as one of the city's most popular running events. It attracts professional and amateur runners from around the world to showcase their competitive spirit against the backdrop of Hong Kong's unique urban landscape. As for the Longines Hong Kong International Horse Show to be held at the AsiaWorld-Expo, it will showcase the elegance and power of equestrianism splendidly. These two events allow local citizens and tourists to experience the allure of sports and highlight Hong Kong's diverse culture and vibrant energy, strengthening Hong Kong's position as a centre for major international sports events."

The "M" Mark System aims to encourage and help local National Sports Associations and private or non-government organisations to organise more major international sports events and nurture them into sustainable undertakings. Sports events meeting the assessment criteria will be considered for "M" Mark status by the MSEC. Funding support will also be provided to some events. The "M" Mark System aims to promote the development of major sports events, cultivate a sustainable sporting culture, enhance Hong Kong's image as a centre for major international sports events and bring tangible economic benefits to the community.
