About World Conker Championships

World Conker Championships
The picturesque Northamptonshire village of ASHTON hosts the World Conker Championships on the second Sunday in October every year. Thousands flock to Ashton to watch this great spectacle as modern day gladiators fight for glory armed only with a nut and 12” of string.

Organised by Ashton Conker Club, the competition first took place in 1965 and has grown year-on-year ever since. Nowadays, teams from all over the world meet for the competition. The competitors play on eight white podiums on the village green and go through rounds until the winner emerges and is lead to the Conker Throne and crowned with conkers.
