Even if you’re not competing, conkers is great fun to spectate. Especially, when watching the world’s best!

Food & Drink

What would a day spectating conkers be without some great local caterers and a well stocked beer tent?

Fight to be the Champion

Anyone can register to play in the World Conker Championships. So, don’t miss out on your chance to compete and be crowned as the 2025 Conker King or Queen.

Our Mission

For us, the World Conker Championships is a great way to have some fun while protecting the heritage of the game of conkers. However, beyond even that, we also donate what we can to charities that aid the visually impaired. To date, we’ve given over £430,000 since 1965 and we’re nowhere near done yet.
