Scheduling Conflict Resolved: L.A. Marathon and Oscars

Given that the Los Angeles Marathon traditionally winds its way through Hollywood Blvd., where the Oscars red carpet is laid out annually in front of the Dolby Theater, it posed a significant challenge that both events were set to occur on the same day in 2026—Sunday, March 15.

Fortunately, a resolution has been reached between the organizers of the L.A. Marathon, the McCourt Foundation, and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which oversees the Oscars. This agreement will effectively prevent any scheduling conflict.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass announced the agreement on Friday. However, sources informed The Hollywood Reporter that the resolution was primarily achieved through direct discussions between the two parties. The outcome: the Oscars will proceed as planned on Sunday, March 15, while the L.A. Marathon will be rescheduled to another date in March 2026, which will be announced soon.

Additionally, all involved parties have agreed that the L.A. Marathon will consistently take place on the third Sunday in March—an arrangement that has been followed in recent years, though not always. The Oscars will be held on a separate date to avoid future conflicts.

Furthermore, the organizers of both the L.A. Marathon and the Oscars have committed to forming a partnership aimed at promoting each other’s events, although specific details of this collaboration are yet to be disclosed.
