Location: Utilita Arena, Sheffield 🇬🇧
Dates: February 7, 2026 - February 7, 2026
Britain's Strongest Man 2026 takes place on February 7th at the Utilita Arena in Sheffield, marking the opening event of the Official Strongman World Tour from Giants Live. This edition features one of the most competitive lineups in the competition's history, with 12 elite athletes including four returning champions competing for the newly renamed Geoff Capes Memorial Trophy, honoring the legendary two-time champion who passed away in 2024.
The stacked field includes defending champion Luke Stoltman alongside his brother Tom Stoltman - a three-time World's Strongest Man and three-time Britain's Strongest Man winner - as well as reigning Europe's Strongest Man Luke Richardson, two-time champion Adam Bishop, and 2019 winner Graham Hicks. Athletes will compete across five demanding events: the Circus Press Medley, Car Walk, Axle Deadlift, Sack Toss, and Power Stairs.
