Cotswold Olimpick Games 2026

The world famous Cotswold Olimpicks are back in 2026. Join us for a spectacular day of fun for all the family.

The picturesque natural amphitheatre of Dover's Hill in the North Cotswolds will once again play host to the historic Cotswold Olimpick Games. Although the World Shin Kicking Championship maybe our most famous event, there are many other individual and team events to watch or compete in. Check out our website for more details www.olimpickgames.co.uk

If you’d like to be a competitor, just ask on the gate and one of our helpful volunteers will direct you to the registration point. No matter if you’re a competitor or one of our thousands of spectators, there’ll be plenty to keep you entertained throughout the day including musicians, dancers, circus entertainers, food stalls, kids games and a beautiful vintage ferris wheel.

Once the sun goes down on the hill, the beacon will be lit and you'll be treated to a stunning firework display. Even then, the fun is far from over, as you're invited to join the magical torch-lit procession from Dover's Hill to Chipping Campden Town Square, where the after-party will begin.

This year, the main stage in the town square will see the return of the fabulous Wired. Those of you who saw them after the games in 2022 or 2024 will know just how talented they are at playing full-fat versions of the tunes you love (and some you never knew you loved!)

Early bird tickets are available at last year’s prices, so get them as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. Tickets purchased on the day: £10/Adult, £5/Child under 16

Please note:

For safety reasons, dogs and alcohol are strictly prohibited on the hill during the games.
