This September, The Prince’s Trust and Magic Radio are teaming up for the 15th anniversary of Palace to Palace and we want you to come along for the ride. Cycle along with us from Buckingham Palace to Windsor Castle on 25th September 2022 and make your miles count by raising funds to help keep young people on track for a better future.

You’ll take in every amazing mile, from Buckingham Palace through to beautiful Richmond Park and the Surrey countryside to riding past Hampton Court Palace and then enjoying fantastic views down the Long Walk, and finally cycling past Windsor Castle to the finish line.

Whether you’re an experienced rider or taking on your first cycling event, there is something for everyone. Choose between the Classic 45 miles or the Ultra 90 miles route and we’ll even help you out with a 10-week training plan for you to download to get ready for the big day. And, at the end of your journey you can celebrate your achievement together with family, friends, and fellow riders at the festival finish line. Take a look at our resources page to help get you motivated and ready to go!

Sign up today and you can enjoy some exclusive benefits and merchandise: a rider pack, a 15th-anniversary T-Shirt, a Finisher medal, fundraising and training support, and if you raise over £300 by Midnight Sunday 21st August, you will receive a gold cycling jersey!

We only ask that everyone taking part aims to raise a minimum of £150 for The Prince's Trust, and we've got plenty of fundraising resources to help you reach your target! Our aim is to help as many young people as possible, and if all 4000 Palace to Palace rider's sign-up and fundraise £150, we can support an incredible 500 young people into life-changing programmes.

Raising £500 for The Prince’s Trust can give a young person a grant to test out their business idea, and £250 for The Prince’s Trust can support a young person through their Achieve programme in schools.

If you can’t make it down to London, don't fret! You can create your very own 45 or 90 mile route with Your Palace to Palace at home with our free virtual event. Whether you create a team with friends and family or sign up as a solo adventurer, simply create your own Palace to Palace route and set off anytime throughout September to achieve your goal. You can still take part in fundraising for The Princes Trust and help change a young persons life!
