Harbour Carnival in Action

Produced by Element Films

โœฆ 2026 Charity Beneficiary
Guernsey Velo Club
Pump Track Project

A permanent pump track at Delancey Park, built on the site of a long-disused tennis court. Free, unfenced, and open to everyone โ€” no experience needed, just turn up and ride.

The GVC's youth section, the Delancey Flyers, already has over 150 members aged 6โ€“14 racing at the park every Wednesday evening. With over 1,500 new homes planned for the north of the island, this will be one of the only community spaces for young people in the area.

For everyone, not just cyclists

Pump tracks work for bikes, scooters, skateboards and balance bikes. Guernsey's existing skatepark doesn't allow bikes, and the old BMX track was repurposed years ago โ€” this fills a real gap.

Turning neglect into something great

The disused tennis courts at Delancey Park have fallen into disrepair and currently attract antisocial behaviour. The States have no plans to regenerate the area โ€” the GVC have stepped in to do it themselves.

World-class construction

The track will be built by Velosolutions, the global leaders in pump track design with hundreds of tracks worldwide. The specialist bitumen surface is low-maintenance and built to last 30+ years.

Round Table

Guernsey Round Table has been part of the island's community since 1962, part of an international movement across 300+ locations dating back to 1927.

We're a group of men who meet regularly to raise money for local causes, organise events for the community, and generally have a good time doing it. If you're aged 18–45 and like the sound of that, we'd love to hear from you.

As well as organising the Harbour Carnival, we run a Christmas chestnut roast in St Peter Port each year and co-organise the Swimarathon. Most of what we raise stays in Guernsey.
