Lawn Mower Racing: The GroundsFest Cup

Ready, set, mow!

GroundsFest 2025 is shifting gears with one of its wildest, most adrenaline-fuelled attractions yet — Lawn Mower Racing and the debut of the GroundsFest Cup.

Taking place across both days of the show, this high-octane spectacle will see professional racers go head-to-head on specially modified machines — stripped of blades but loaded with power, speed, and pure competitive spirit.

Brought to you by the West Midlands Lawn Mower Racing Association, this is the real deal. A custom-built track, roaring engines, tight corners, and an electric atmosphere await as some of the UK’s top racers battle it out for glory and the honour of becoming the first-ever GroundsFest Cup champion.

Why Lawn Mower Racing?

Because GroundsFest is all about doing things differently. This isn’t just a race — it’s a celebration of engineering, skill, and the sheer fun that lawn care equipment can bring. It’s the machines you know, pushed to their limits in a way you’ve never seen before.

And don’t be surprised if you leave with a new favourite ‘motorsport.

A Unique Spectacle

Whether you’re a turf care pro, machinery enthusiast, or just someone who loves a bit of high-speed action, the Lawn Mower Racing arena is the place to be. It’s one of many features that makes GroundsFest more than just another industry event — it’s an experience.
