Some of our wonderful Creative and Digital Media students will be creating amazing content as they help out at this year's Weston Beach Race! 

Located on Weston-super-Mare's seafront, the annual Beach Race is the UK’s biggest Offroad Motorsport event. Spanning over 6 miles, the race brings in competitors and supporters from all over Europe, with over 100,000 people attending across the three-day weekend. 

Our learners will be filming content of the race, crowds, and riders, alongside presenting their student-run radio station, Weston Waves, at the event. 

Weston Waves was launched earlier this year and has been a triumphant success and excellent learning experience for our media students. 

Between hosting shows and mixing music, the radio station has given our learners the opportunity to develop a vast range of skills, progress their understanding of industry-relevant practices and take ownership of their hard work. The Beach Race is a perfect place to evolve the Weston Waves station even further, interviewing sportspeople and covering a live event! 

This is just one of many amazing opportunities learners on our Creative and Digital Media course get to work and interact with live projects, within a real industry setting. 

The event will begin Friday 21st October 2022 and will run until Sunday 23rd October 2022. To find out more about the Beach Race, click here.
