GroundsFest 2025 is revving up with one of its boldest and most exhilarating attractions yet -lawn mower racing and the inaugural GroundsFest Cup.
Taking place across both days of the event, this professionally run spectacle promises edge-of-your-seat action, heart-pounding excitement and a whole lot of fun.
“This is no gentle ride around the garden,” says organiser Fusion Media’s Chris Bassett. “These are specially modified racing mowers, stripped of their blades but supercharged with adrenaline, skill and competitive spirit. Expect high speeds, roaring engines, tight turns, and a field of elite riders battling it out on a custom-built track in front of a live crowd.”
Organised by the West Midlands Lawn Mower Racing Association, some of the UK’s most experienced lawn mower racers will be competing for glory and the honour of becoming the first ever winner of The GroundsFest Cup. It’s fast, furious and fiercely competitive but above all, it’s seriously good fun.
And there’s more to it than just the thrill of the race. GroundsFest visitors will get to see a range of lawn mower brands in action, used and pushed to their limits by the pros. It’s a unique chance to witness these machines in a whole new light, not just as tools of the trade but as vehicles of pure entertainment.
“Lawn mower racing is guaranteed to turn heads and create excitement at GroundsFest 2025. It’s just one more way GroundsFest continues to break the mould and deliver something truly different to any other trade event,” Chris adds.
