MK Can Quest Returns to Campbell Park on World Food Day – 16 October 2025
Raising funds for MK Food Bank, Milton Keynes is gearing up for the return of MK Can Quest, a high-energy community challenge taking place on World Food Day, Thursday 16 October 2025, at Campbell Park. This annual event commemorates the record-breaking MK Can initiative of 2023, which united the city in a powerful display of generosity and teamwork.
Last year, more than 50 businesses and community groups took part in the inaugural MK Can Quest, navigating the 7.6km MK Can route while hunting for hidden cans and tackling a series of physical and mental challenges. The event was a resounding success, blending fun, fitness, and philanthropy in a celebration of community spirit.
This year’s Quest promises even more excitement, with new challenges, expanded team participation, and a renewed focus on food sustainability and local support. Teams will compete to complete the course, solve puzzles, and collect cans—all while raising awareness for food insecurity and celebrating the legacy of MK Can.
