About

The Britpart Woodpecker Stages returns on Saturday 12th September 2026, bringing another exciting day of gravel rallying to the forests of Mid Wales. Based in Newtown, the event attracts leading drivers from across the UK as they take on fast, technical forest stages in a battle against the clock.

This year's rally sees the welcome return of the famous Radnor Forest stages, alongside the popular Cwmysgawen tests. A new rally hub at Badlands Farm will host the service area, giving spectators the chance to get close to the cars and watch the teams prepare them between stages.

Whether you're a dedicated rally fan or simply looking for an action-packed day out, the Britpart Woodpecker Stages promises spectacular driving, powerful rally cars and a fantastic atmosphere in the beautiful Welsh countryside. Spectator viewing areas will be available at selected stages, with full details released closer to the event.
