BOXING DAY EVENT - TUESDAY 26th DECEMBER 2023
A punishing 3 mile long pram race saw competitors dashing through the sleepy village of Pagham near Bognor Regis, West Sussex on this Boxing Day morning.
Race participants entered prams they had designed and built at home, dashing around the course to be first to reach the finish line with a driver pushing the pram and a baby in the pram. The annual race has three key points, The Bear, The Lamb public houses and Maria’s Cafe, where a pint must be consumed by both the driver and baby, at each stop.
This is the 76th Pagham Pram Race, with the first taking place in 1946 when a group of demobbed servicemen decided to do something fun over the festive period. The race returned last year for its 75th incarnation following a 2 year break due to Covid restrictions.
