This year the Gladiators' live show is making a comeback to stages across the nation. The show, which has multiple dates across the UK, is set to be even bigger and better than ever. The Gladiators Live Tour 2026 will last three months, beginning in October and running through to December. Starting in Aberdeen, the events will occur on consecutive weekends (both Saturdays and Sundays) with afternoon and evening performances each day. And the country's beloved Saturday evening TV athletes are brushing off their pugil sticks for their return, as well.
Although the line-up has not been revealed just yet, if it's anything like last year's team, it's bound to be an epic event. And what a string of events they will be; the live production, a spin-off from the BBC programme of the same name, will deliver a thrilling two-hour arena spectacle twice daily.
Along the journey, the Gladiators tour will visit seven cities around the UK this year to "storm back into the arena to face fearless contenders" throughout the experience.
And during the 14-date event, audiences can expect "breathtaking stunts, epic head-to-head battles and the unforgettable Eliminator finale" - all performed live on stage.
The entire experience will unfold within "immersive" arenas, which will be designed to replicate the television programme's set. And across the 28 shows, fans can witness feats previously only seen on the small screen.

Sites such as viagogo, Stubhub, and Vivid Seats allow fans to buy resale tickets from other fans. However, it is important to note that ticket conditions often prohibit resale after initial purchase. Those tickets may not be valid for admittance to gigs.
Fans intending to buy tickets for live events through resale websites should check the ticket terms and conditions, to confirm whether resale is prohibited, before they buy. Ticket terms and conditions can be checked with the original seller, such as Ticketmaster or Live Nation. If resale is prohibited, tickets bought second-hand could be voided and admission to the event refused.
Alternatively, resale market viagogo could have tickets available for fans who want specific seats or locations in the venues.
