Welcome to King’s Cup, Britain’s ultimate gravel festival.

King’s Cup is where stars are made and titles won.

King’s Cup is home to the British Gravel Championships for Elites as well as Masters Age Groups, with champion’s jerseys awarded to all winners.

But it’s far more than that, with other competitive and recreational rides throughout the weekend. Stay and watch the races, grab some food and a drink, visit the Expo, listen to live music, and you can stay overnight on our campsite!

That’s why King’s Cup is Britain’s Ultimate Gravel Festival.
