Festival of Sport 2025

1 August 2025 - 4 August 2025

The Festival of Sport 2025 will take place at Packington Estate in Warwickshire, England from 1-4 August 2025. Co-founded by England international rugby stars Will Greenwood and Austin Healey, the Festival of Sport offers children the opportunity to try dozens of sports in a single weekend, to learn from the best and primarily to enjoy all of the benefits of sports participation with family and friends, old and new. 

Sporting legends over the weekend include Olympians, Paralympians, world record-holders and international capped stars. They actively participate throughout the weekend, coaching and playing alongside youngsters – and making time to have fun with accompanying adults too. 

The 2025 event kicks off at a new venue with arrivals on Friday afternoon setting up camp at Packington Estate, near Birmingham and lasts right through to Monday morning. Accommodation options range from DIY camping to ready-pitched fully-furnished bell tents and airstream trailers. 

Saturday and Sunday are packed with a full A-Z of sports in 12 timetabled sessions for every child aged 5-17, from athletics to Zumba via rugby, hockey, rowing, skateboarding and more, all included in the price. Pre-schoolers (who go free) can also join in with age-appropriate versions of a variety of sports and activities.
