The Bulldog Bash is widely acknowledged as the safest live music festival in Britain – but it is much, much more than just a gig; The Bulldog Bash is the best biker event in Europe. A huge variety of non-musical attractions includes jet-force cars and rocket propelled bikes hurtling down the drag strip, huge custom bike and car exhibitions, an awesome dance tent, a topless bike (& anything else) wash, wrestling bouts, a veritable village of stalls and loads of ludicrous white-knuckle rides.

The Bulldog Bash is a unique event on the UK festival calendar, set up and run by bikers for bikers, and lovers of all things hard and metallic - from exotic custom bikes and cars, to jet force drag cars. The Bulldog Bash, which features one of the UK’s biggest and best undercover custom bike exhibitions (with big prizes for a host of categories) also boasts an exotic US Custom Car exhibition.

The Shakespeare County Raceway Drag Strip boasts one of the best racing surfaces in Europe, and the Bulldog Bash always attracts an amazing variety of custom cars and bikes, jet cars, jet karts, jet lorries, and stunt riders. Regular shows with the pro and demo racers and other special attractions - some hurtling at world record breaking speeds, including the awesome Fireforce 1 and 2 jet cars - alternate with ‘Run What You Brung’, where amateurs jump at the chance to blast their own machines down the dragway at full force… whatever the consequences.

There is always a huge market comprising stalls of every description, plus, of course, biker accessories & clothing. The Bulldog also boasts a huge fairground with ejector seat bungee jumping and various ‘white-knuckle’ rides, tattoo and piercing stalls, a mini moto arena, the ‘Wall of Death’, and the ‘Topless Bike Wash’! Growing in popularity every year, the UWA wrestling bouts have become a regular attraction and firm favourite. After the main bouts, they culminate with an all comers over-the-top-rope royal rumble for the vacant Bulldog Belt. Wet t-shirt and beer gut competitions with decent cash prizes are another popular attraction.

The Bulldog Bash has evolved from a tiny gathering 20 years ago to become Europe's biggest and best biker / rock festival - because the organisers thought of the event they would like to attend and made it happen. The incredible, laid back, rock and biker community atmosphere has developed of its own accord. A unique event on the UK festival calendar, The Bulldog Bash has an enviable reputation as the safest rock festival in the land, as has frequently been publicly acknowledged by the local police force.
