Royal Marines Commando Challenge 2021 Cancelled

The Royal Marines Commando Challenge has been cancelled for 2021.

It is run by RMA – The Royal Marines Charity and Devon Air Ambulance, and the event's hosts say they are "disappointed to come to this decision".

Organisers of the event say, despite the projected easing of restrictions around coronavirus, complex supply arrangements and a shorter events calendar for both charities amid the pandemic mean it will not be possible this year.

They added: "We will be back bigger and better than ever in 2022," encouraging people to keep an eye on the Royal Marines Commando Challenge social media feeds for ticket sales later in the year.

For those who have held over their payment from the 2020 event, organisers say they have been in touch to offer a refund.

The Royal Marines Commando Challenge has thanked the public for ongoing support and said: "We cannot wait to see you back in the mud next year."
