Start your Sunday in the best way possible! Join hundreds of friendly CarFesters in a lively, colourful run around The Michelin-Protyre Autocare Track, with enthusiastic cheers from spectators spurring you on every step of the way.
Whether you’re a seasoned sprinter or just out for a laugh, the Festival Dash is the perfect chance to get those steps in, show off your most outrageous costume, and create memories that’ll last a lifetime.
Don’t miss this year’s Festival Dash powered by Neilson Beach Club Holidays! Get ready to kick off the day with a burst of positive vibes! Their Good Energy Gang will be at the start line to pump you up, set the tone, and get everyone moving with smiles all around. Then be sure to keep an eye (and ear!) out for Neilson’s spirited crew who will be cheering you on every step of the way. Expect big energy, loud support, and feel-good motivation from start to finish.
Once you’ve smashed that finish line, the fun’s just beginning! Head over to Neilson Beach Clubs at KidsFest where you can try your hand at pickleball, get creative with face painting and even dive into Beach Club classics like paddle boarding, yoga, and boxercise.
And don’t miss your chance to win an epic Beach Club – the ultimate prize to top off an unforgettable weekend!
What are you waiting for? Raid your wardrobe, get crafty, and create the most fabulous Festival Dash costume ever! Whether you’re a superhero, a mythical creature, a Regency hero, or something completely bonkers, we want to see it all. Rally your friends, family, or fellow runners and get ready for the most fun (and funniest) dash around.
And, when you cross that finish line, you’ll earn yourself a shiny medal to show off your dash-tastic achievement!
If you have a physical impairment - whether you walk, wheel, use a mobility aid, or need a little extra support- you’re absolutely welcome to join the fun.
Got a scooter or a powered wheelchair? Pimp your ride, bring your brightest costume, and get ready to make some noise on the track. It’s your time to shine!
So, whether you’re bringing a mobility scooter, electric wheelchair, walking frame, or just need a buddy to support you on the route, we can’t wait to see you out there, dressed up and dashing in your own way.
Spaces are limited for certain mobility devices, so if you’d like to take part using an electric wheelchair, scooter or other access equipment, please email our Access Team to secure your spot.
Not only will you be having a blast, but your entry donation goes straight to CarFest’s incredible UK children’s charities. So, every step you take is a step toward making a real difference for these amazing organisations. You’re running for a good cause, after all!
