dumball 5 is open for applications until
April 1st 2010
 
Next year's dates are: Friday September 3rd - Sunday September 12th
 
It costs £400 per person, plus a £50 fee for each team entered
(max 3 per team)*
 

Your mission is to raise at least £2000 for the TEENAGE CANCER TRUST, so we can hit our fundraising target of a whopping £100k!

 

The 2010 event will kick off with a huge fundraising party and opening parade on Brighton sea front- with live music and a mystery guest to get things started. Then after a good nights rest we drive through: France, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Lichtenstein, Italy, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Kosovo, Macedonia, Greece...and it will all end with a magnificent awards ceremony in Sicily!

 

Think long and hard about your ideas for a car theme and fancy dress. We can't take everybody with us, and demand is high, so we pick the most original and inspiring ideas, because we want the dumball to be the best banger rally in the world. Need some inspiration? CHECK OUT PREVIOUS ENTRIES
 
The application form is open until April 1st 2010. If you are successful, confirmation e-mails will be sent out on April 2nd 2010.
 
*Teams are a maximum of three people so you can hitch a lift with others if/when you breakdown. Your £400 fee covers all your accommodation and ferries for the 9 days and nights of the event (Friday PM to the following Sunday AM) and loads of other stuff - in fact just about everything you need for the week (see below). You just buy a vehicle and book your flight home and you really are ready to dumball. The dumball is run by volunteers and certainly is not for profit. Every bit of your money is spent on getting the best accommodation and having the best time en route. That's what makes us special!
