Eastbourne residents took to the streets to watch the town’s first Seafront Soapbox Race in 2021.

Forty teams raced their homemade soapboxes round corners and over ramps between Dukes Drive and Helen Garden with the aim of taking home a cash prize.

The race returns this year, on Sunday, September 24, following two previous iterations of the event, at Dukes Drive will see teams take to the course in their specially made soapboxes to race against each other along the seafront to the finish line at Helen Gardens.
