The Chap Olympiad, one of Britain’s most eccentric sporting events, will be heading to Goodwood for a splendid weekend of games with well-dressed folk.

It will be the second opportunity this year for refined chaps and chapettes to take part in, or watch, The Chap Olympiad as it heads to the Goodwood Revival, home of all things vintage and sporting.

The Revival weekender makes the perfect venue with its programme of vintage car racing, air displays and retro entertainment, for the quirky games of the Olympiad.

Visitors can expect events such as Umbrella Jousting, the Tea Pursuit, Cucumber Sandwich Discus and Picnic Vaulting. The Chap Olympiad will take place ‘Over the Road’, near to the markets and Revival fairground at the event.

When: 13th – 15th September 2019
Where: At the Goodwood Revival, Chichester, West Sussex
£: Revival tickets from £59
