The Bradford Super Soapbox is only a few weeks away, and organisers have announced popular Yorkshire social media star, Danny Malin will open the event when it takes place on Sunday 5th May.
The event will see the city centre come alive with 1000s of visitors watching the competing carts whizz around the course that starts on Kirkgate, before heading down Bank Street, and crossing the finishing line on Tyrell Street.
Ensuring the popular race can return to the city, principal sponsor Bradford BID is joined by local businesses and organisations including The Broadway, UK City of Culture 2025, Bradford College, Tiffin, Schofield Sweeney and Munroe K as sponsors for the event.
The charity partners for this year’s event include Yorkshire Air Ambulance, Mind in Bradford and Centrepoint.

We’re delighted to have the support of other key Bradford organisations to help make this event happen which provides a huge boost to our city centre retailers and food and drink venues.
We can’t wait for Danny to cut the ribbon on the day and get the race going.”
