Eight-time World Champion Billy Bolt is confirmed for the 43rd Weston Beach Race, taking place from 16–18 October 2026.
Bolt’s return to Weston continues a growing story between one of the sport’s biggest names and one of its toughest events. After making his mark on the sands with a strong second-place finish in 2025, he showed he has the pace, control and craft to handle the unique demands of the beach.
The Weston Beach Race is a very different challenge to the indoor and hard enduro formats Bolt has dominated in recent years. Deep sand, changing conditions and long race durations test even the best, but his performance in previous years proved he can adapt quickly and run at the front.

The event continues to attract a wide mix of elite, amateur and youth riders, all taking on the same demanding circuit along the Weston-super-Mare coastline. Bolt’s presence on the line raises the level and adds to what is already shaping up to be a competitive 2026 entry.
Spectator tickets are currently available at a reduced advance rate, and rider entries remain open for those looking to line up alongside the World Champion.
