The Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon is an annual marathon held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on the last Sunday in September. There is also a half marathon and 5 km race.

The race has quickly become one of the most prestigious in North America. The marathon meets international standards and is a qualifier for the Boston Marathon. The marathon is also an IAAF Silver Label Road Race.

It is not to be confused with the Toronto Marathon which is held three weeks later in October.
