About Race2Paris November 2024

Edinburgh RAG presents Race2Paris 2024!

This November RAG welcomes the return of its famous charity hitch-hikes.
This set-to-sell-out event involves teams of students hitch-hiking from Edinburgh to Paris without spending ANY of their own money on transport.

This fantastic adventure lets you travel hundreds of miles across Europe, all whilst raising money for your favourite charity - not to mention a weekend in Paris, prizes for winners and other challenges to be completed along the way.

22nd - 24th November 2024
