Welcome to the Oxted Pram Race

Friday 3rd July 2009

The annual Oxted Pram Race takes place on the Friday evening before the Oxted Carnival and has been run since 1977. The ultimate objective of the Pram Race is to raise money for local causes, but having fun in the process.

In fact participating in the event is quite simple – all you have to pay is an entry fee and ask family and friends to sponsor you to run the two thirds of a mile from Master Park to The Bell in Old Oxted High Street, however…

…you do need to push a pram in fancy dress and stop at each of the seven licensed premises on the way, where you have to down a drink as fast as you can! There are prizes as well as penalties for how well you do.

If pushing a pram is not your thing – why not get involved by helping on the night – how can I help?
