Billericay Soapbox Derby

Rotary Club of Billericay

2019 Soapbox Derby


Application for an Entry Pack

The Rotary Club of Billericay Soapbox Derbies in 2016, 2017 and 2018 were highly successful, raising over £90,000 for charity. Thousands of people had a great time.

As we provide more facilities at the event our costs continue to increase (2018 nearly 20% higher than 2017) so we are having to review Entry Fee pricing.

Advance Entry

The Entry Fee is a low £60 (non-refundable) per soapbox including any postage and packing.

As in all previous years, the expectation is that every team will raise at least £100 in sponsorship for charities supported by Rotary.
