Aylesbury Duck Race 2026

The Bucks Radio Virtual Aylesbury Duck Race is back, with a chance to win £200 and a year's membership to Aqua Vale Gym in Aylesbury.

Just pick the plastic ducky you think will reign supreme, and the cash and membership could be yours. You can see all the ducks, and their sponsors, below. Will you pick one because you've used the company in the past? Or maybe a lucky number?, or just a name that makes you giggle? Choose wisely though, as you are only allowed to pick one duck*
