🏆 Compete for:
💪 Strongest Bridge — highest load capacity
✨ Prettiest Bridge — best aesthetics, creativity and innovation

📅 Thursday, 24 September 2026
🕕 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
🎟️ FREE ENTRY

No experience needed — just bring your mates, your competitive spirit and your best bridge-building ideas.

Will your bridge survive the load test… or become dinner? 👀🍝
