Free obstacle course coming to Bournemouth’s Triangle
Ahead of the Contender Fest, which takes place at Parley in September, people will be able to try out an obstacle course.
Contender Fest is coming to Parley Lane near Bournemouth Airport in September, but ahead of that the festival is bringing an obstacle course to The Triangle, Commercial Road, in Bournemouth town centre on 14 August.
Would-be contenders can have some fun and get a taste of what they can expect from the full 40-element obstacle course which will be the centrepiece of the new Contender Fest event which runs from 10 to 12 September.
A selection of the obstacles, which have all been custom-built for the festival, will be set up in The Triangle- and you can turn up and have a go for free.
Contender Fest founder, Des Burke, said: “We want to give people an idea of the experience they can look forward to at Contender Fest and get them fired up for some physical fun.
“The obstacle course we’re putting together is unique, with elements chosen to be challenging – but not defeating – so contenders of every fitness level and ability can take part and feel the buzz of putting themselves to the test and doing something new and exciting.”
As well as a 40-element obstacle course at the Contender Fest there will be plenty of other attractions. Festival-goers can join classes and training sessions across more than a dozen fitness and wellness disciplines, enjoy family fun and entertainment, and sample many delicious food options too.
A central stage will host performances from musicians, local groups and theatre schools throughout the day, while DJs will get the after party going on the Friday and Saturday evenings. You can also expect fitness-related trade stands, gourmet food stalls, local produce, three speciality bars, a craft village, kids mini-obstacle course, fairground rides, and more, set across a generous festival ground.
