Warwick Pancake races are set to return this February 2026.

Taking place on Tuesday 24 February, Warwick Rotary President, Jon Wassall, will set off local children in the annual pancake races organised by the Rotary Club of Warwick.

Children from local primary schools will keep a tradition alive by racing in Warwick's Market Square.

"Grown–ups" are also invited to join in with local businesses invited to sign up.

Those who can find a team of four for £10 can race at 1pm, and prizes will be given to the winning team.

The children's races start at 1.30pm and will be cheered on by a large turn-out of parents, classmates and spectators.

A trophy will be awarded to each winning team.

Rotary club organiser Jackie Crampton shared: "This is a nice way to keep a tradition alive and we are hoping for some fine spring weather on the day.

"Warwick Rotarians are out in force to marshall the event and this is one of the events we arrange for the local community."
