About Focal Events

Focal Events was formed alongside creating the UK’s first and largest gravel event, the Dirty Reiver, back in 2016. The Team shared a vision for how events should focus on a positive experience in every aspect – from sign on to finish line and beyond

Focal Events can also bring this same attention to
generating events for brands, businesses and charities

Rider Experience is valued above all else
