3 x Krazy Races

Totally Stockport, the Business Improvement District (BID) company dedicated to supporting and promoting Stockport town centre, is thrilled to announce the return of Totally Stockport Krazy Races, with support from Stockport Council, on Sunday 9th August 2026.

After a two-year break, Totally Stockport is bringing back the UK’s largest free-to-attend soapbox derby, ensuring the event will be bigger, bolder, and packed with even more fun for all the family.

The last Totally Stockport Krazy Races drew over 15,000 spectators who lined the streets to cheer on 30 wildly creative soapbox teams. Now, thanks to Totally Stockport’s backing, the adrenaline-fuelled event returns with new features, thrilling entertainment, and plenty of surprises — cementing its place as one of the town’s most exciting community celebrations.

Since the last Stockport event, Krazy Races has been touring the country, attracting over 250,000 people and raising more than £200,000 for local charities since 2018. Stockport alone has already benefitted by nearly £20,000 raised for local causes — and with the BID’s support, 2026 promises to deliver even more impact for businesses, charities, and the local community.

This year’s action-packed event will once again see teams hurtle down a 350m course through the heart of Stockport, complete with chicanes, obstacles, and even more surprises. Homemade soapbox karts will launch from the starting line and race to glory cheered on by thousands of spectators.
