The London to Brighton Electric Vehicle Rally 2026

Saturday 20th June 2026

The London to Brighton Electric Vehicle Rally is back for its 6th year on Saturday 20th June 2026 — and this time, it’s bigger, brighter, and more competitive than ever.

Starting in London, over 100 electric vehicles of every kind — from small city cars and SUVs to vans, buses, and even e-bikes — will take on the iconic route to Brighton, competing to see who can complete the journey using the least amount of energy. It’s not about how fast you go — it’s about how smartly and efficiently you drive. Each category has its own award, meaning every driver has a real chance to take home a trophy at the end of the day.

Your entry includes everything you need for a full rally experience. Each ticket covers one vehicle and two people, with a driver breakfast to start the day, full vehicle entry stickers and identification, and a place in the official rally lineup. You’ll enjoy exclusive access to the EVillage on Brighton’s Madeira Drive, where you can explore and even test drive the latest and greatest electric vehicles from leading manufacturers, meet fellow drivers, and talk directly with industry experts.

After you’ve crossed the finish line, it’s time to relax and celebrate. Every team enjoys a fish and chip lunch for tworight on the seafront, before heading to the Malmaison Brighton Marina in the evening for the official Awards Party. Expect a BBQ dinner, welcome drink on arrival, and an evening surrounded by the best in the industry as we crown the most efficient EVs in each category.

This isn’t just a rally — it’s a full-day celebration of electric driving, innovation, and community. Whether you’re driving a Tesla, BYD, MG, Hyundai, or your own converted classic, the London to Brighton EV Rally is your chance to put your car — and your driving skills — to the test, meet fellow EV enthusiasts, and be part of one of the UK’s most exciting electric events.

Join us on 20th June 2026. Take on the challenge. Celebrate the drive.
Who knows — you might just be crowned the most efficient driver of them all.
