Summit Up is turning four, and we are celebrating with a special three-day climbing event. From 19 to 21 September, our entire bouldering area will be stripped back and reset with fresh, competition-style problems designed to challenge every level of climber. Whether you are new to climbing or an experienced competitor, there will be something to test your technique, power, and problem-solving skills.
Boulder Fest is open to all, with four categories to choose from: Adult Male, Adult Female, Under 18 Male, and Under 18 Female.
Prizes will be awarded to the top three in each category. Entry is just £5 and includes automatic entry into our raffle, meaning you could win even more simply by taking part.
To join, pick up your scorecard from reception during the event dates and take on the problems at your own pace. This is more than just a competition — it is a chance to celebrate Summit Up’s 4th Birthday, connect with the climbing community, and enjoy three days of challenge, fun, and atmosphere.
This is a fun competition for pupils from school years 7 to 13 which will run along similar lines to the BMC youth climbing series competitions. For this competition competitors will be split into three age categories - school years 7-8, 9-10 and 11-13 with male and female categories in each.
Get ready for a Halloween like no other at Summit Up! On 31st October from 6pm, we’re cutting the lights and cranking up the music for our Lights Out Climbing Night.
