It’s BACK! After a hiatus in 2024, the White Rose is back with a bang in 2025 in the beautiful and challenging Dalby Forest.
As usual, there will be camping, and events on the Friday – Monday.
This years’ event will be back at Dalby and its the 50th White Rose! As usual, the areas will be located conveniently close to the campsite to help create that brilliant relaxed family atmosphere the event is so well known for (see photos for a glimpse back to the 2023 event).
More details will be updated on this page when we get them, but the general format will be as follows:
Friday 22nd: Night event
Saturday 23rd: Middle Race
Sunday 24th: Classic Race
Monday 25th: Sprint
Final positions will be calculated using the middle and classic events, and prize giving will take place on the Sunday afternoon – with the classic White Rose mugs aplenty!
There will be the usual trimmings of the quiz, maze, hill race, BYO BBQ etc.
