The Beaujolais Run ® began in 1972 when Sunday Times journalist Alan Hall threw down the gauntlet to Fleet Street to 'Bring Back the Beaujolais'.
The Beaujolais Run has evolved to become a navigational shoot out over a cryptic checkpoint course in deepest Burgundy. This format ensures Austin and Aston, Jaguar and Jalpa and Porsche and Prius can compete on a level playing field. Maps, Sat Nav and Laptops are all acceptable modes of navigation on the event. Teams compete for the honour of achieving P1 on the grid the following year (highest fundraising team) and P2, the team that covers the shortest distance on the navigational trial.
To enter The Beaujolais Run every Team pays an entry fee which is kept entirely separate from the Team's minimum sponsorship target. All monies raised go directly and in total to the event's nominated charities (selected annually). Competitors' experiences do not eat into monies raised.
