Large crowds gathered on Cooper’s Hill in Brockworth earlier for the annual Cheese Rolling event.
Local residents have been staging their own unofficial event after health and safety fears caused the official competition to be cancelled in 2010.
This year’s event prompted a safety warning from the local ambulance, police and fire services.
Tewkesbury Borough Council’s Lead Member for Environmental Services, Councillor Murray Stewart, said “The cheese rolling at Cooper’s Hill is a unique tradition in our county and we have no desire to stop it.
“However, as the event does not have an official organiser, the relevant documentation and plans detailing how members of the public will be kept safe, has not been submitted.
“The Safety Advisory Group has been left with no alternative other than to declare the event unsafe and has a duty to share this with the public.
“We are advising those planning to attend or participate in the cheese rolling to consider the risks they might be putting themselves in.”
The SAG consists of agencies, including the emergency services, who work together to promote high levels of safety and welfare at events by giving advice and guidance.
The first race was won by 23-year-old Youtuber Tom Kope from Munich.
It’s his second victory after winning the race in 2024.
Luke Briggs dressed as Superman was the winner in the second race Men’s Race.
Meanwhile, Abby Lampe from America was hoping to secure her third record but was defeated by Ava Sender Logan from London.
The air ambulance and several ambulances were called to the event after several competitors were stretchered off the hill.
