How the Ballot Works ▼

Entry Fee: £5.00 (one-time, non-refundable)

💡 Why do we charge an entry fee? ▼

As the championships have grown in popularity, so have the costs of hosting the competition safely. The £5.00 ballot entry fee goes directly towards running costs of the event.

All profits go to charity, local community projects, and maintaining Easdale's harbour, community hall, and island museum. Your entry fee helps support our island community whilst giving you a chance to compete!

What you get:

  • Entry into the ballot draw
  • If drawn, you can register one adult, or select the family entry option to register children/juniors (up to 2 adults + 3 children/juniors total)
  • Family entries get a higher chance in the draw!
  • If unsuccessful, enter again next year with improved odds!

Ticket Pricing: If drawn, competition tickets cost £20.00 per adult and £5.00 per child/junior. These are purchased separately after you're drawn.
