Colchester Soapbox Rally has been postponed due to relocation.
Responding to feedback from spectators at last year’s event, Our Colchester BID has been in talks with Essex Highways to host the event on North Hill.
Following positive discussions, the race will relocate to North Hill and to allow for sufficient time to organise the arrangement of the new track and logistics, this will be held on a new date, to be agreed. The Soapbox Rally was due to return to Colchester High Street on Sunday 15 September 2024.
"This event draws thousands of visitors to Colchester and is therefore important to us to do what we can to improve the experience this year. We have listened to the public and our kart entrants and we are pleased to be able to bring the event to North Hill and will announce further details shortly. Colchester City Centre is blessed with an incredible line-up of events this Summer with Invasion Colchester, Anti-Loo Roll Brigade Festival and the 80's Calling event in Castle Park leaving our residents and visitors no shortage of entertainment to enjoy". - Our Colchester BID spokesperson
A new date for the Soapbox rally will be announced in due course.
Thank you for your feedback and for helping the event be the best it can be!
