The World Gravy Wrestling Championships will be held this year on the 26th August 2019 at the Rose ‘n Bowl, Stacksteads to raise funds for the East Lancashire Hospice and competitors nominated charities.

Without a doubt this is one of the World’s craziest culinary competitions. A wild and whacky wrestling competition in a pool full of Lancashire Gravy! Contestants must wrestle in the Gravy for 2 minutes, Points are scored for fancy dress, comedy effect, entertainment and oh! yes, wrestling ability. All our contestants get sponsorship and really give it their all to raise money for charity. There are many activities for the family, in previous years we have had cheer leading groups, BB gun shooting range, Bouncy castles, face painting, craft beer stalls, cake and tombola stands. Also kids get a chance to get a go in the gravy

Food and drink will be served all day and the fire brigade will be there to wash down wrestlers between bouts.

All in all it’s a great day out.
