The city’s Corporate Pancake Day Race approaches, and local companies wanting a place had ‘batter’ hurry - entries close next week.
Organised to raise money for activities at the Milton Keynes Rose, the traditional races take place in Campbell Park on Shrove Tuesday, 17 February, from 11.30am.
Teams are invited to sign up and compete for the title of ‘MK Corporate Pancake Day Race Winner’ an accolade currently held by Mercer & Hole. Entry is £80 per team of four colleagues, competing in heats before the top teams go head-to-head in the grand final.
Keeping up with the traditions of the Olney Pancake Race, teams need to come dressed to toss… with frying pan, headscarf and apron.
“We’re excited to once again see local businesses and organisations go head to head in the annual race, that puts the fun in fundraising!" said Amy Gerhard, events and community engagement assistant, "Support such as this helps fund special projects and future pillars for MK Rose. The pillars are a great reflection of our diverse community, recording dates of events associated with Milton Keynes’ past and present.”
The Milton Keynes Rose was opened in 2013, providing all local people and organisations with a place to celebrate, contemplate and commemorate the things that are significant to them.
Entries close on Tuesday 10 February 2026. For more information, including sign-up details, visit theparkstrust.com/pancakerace
