The road to 2027: where sport takes you next
Late 2026 and 2027 bring a packed calendar of major sporting events, each one expected to draw significant numbers of travelling fans, athletes, sponsors and support staff. From international tournaments and championship deciders to global showcases that take over an entire city, these fixtures create real demand for reliable, coordinated group travel.
Whether you are moving a squad and its backroom team, a block of supporters, corporate hospitality guests, or broadcast and event personnel, we can arrange tailored charter solutions to and from host cities and venues anywhere in the world. With the flexibility to scale from a private jet for a handful of VIPs to a full commercial aircraft for a large group, we help make sure everyone arrives together, prepared, and ready for the occasion.
Late 2026
Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe
3 to 4 October 2026 | ParisLongchamp, Paris
Widely regarded as the most prestigious flat race in Europe, the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe brings together the world’s leading horses, owners and racing teams. With a prize fund of around €5 million, it is often described as the ‘World Cup’ of turf racing and draws significant international travel demand across the weekend.
Riyadh Season 2026/2027
October 2026 to March 2027 | Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
A vast multi-month entertainment festival spearheaded by the General Entertainment Authority (GEA), Riyadh Season transforms the Saudi capital with spectacular zones, global concerts and a programme of major sporting events. Its scale and length make it a magnet for international visitors across the whole window, with travel demand spread over several months rather than a single weekend.
Rugby League World Cup
October to November 2026 | Australia, with matches in New Zealand and Papua New Guinea
The 17th edition of the tournament runs the men’s, women’s and wheelchair competitions alongside one another, with the majority of teams hailing from across the Pacific. Hosting spread across three nations means plenty of movement between venues for teams and supporters alike.
The Nations Championship
July to November 2026 | Finals Weekend at Allianz Stadium, London
A brand new biennial rugby tournament pitting the leading northern and southern hemisphere nations against each other, with points-based fixtures building towards a Finals Weekend in London from 27 to 29 November. The title decider, first versus first, takes place on 29 November 2026.

December 2026 | Yas Marina Circuit, Abu Dhabi
The season finale of the FIA Formula One World Championship, and traditionally one of the most glamorous dates on the calendar, drawing teams, sponsors and hospitality guests from around the world.
World Darts Championship
December 2026 to January 2027 | Alexandra Palace, London
The pinnacle of professional darts, hosted annually at Ally Pally over the festive period and a fixture that reliably packs out London across the holiday season.
2027
'The Big Game'
14 February 2027 | SoFi Stadium, Inglewood, California
The championship game of the NFL season returns to SoFi Stadium for the second time in five years, and falls on Valentine’s Day for the first time in Super Bowl history. As ever, it doubles as a global entertainment event with travel demand well beyond the United States.
Mid to late 2027
FIFA Women's World Cup
24 June to 25 July 2027 | Brazil
The 10th edition of the global women’s football championship, and the first ever to be held in South America. Matches are spread across eight host cities, from Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo to Salvador and Recife, with 32 teams competing.
Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027
1 October to 13 November 2027 | Australia
The first tournament to be branded as the Men’s Rugby World Cup to promote gender parity, the 11th edition of the games is due to take place in Australia. South Africa are the team to beat, as the two-time defending champions in 2019 and 2023.
ICC Men's Cricket World Cup
4 October to 21 November 2027 | South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia
The 14th edition of the One Day International showpiece returns to Africa for the first time since 2003, expanding back to 14 teams. South Africa stages the bulk of the matches, with Zimbabwe and Namibia co-hosting, the latter for the first time.
Planning travel around the world’s biggest fixtures
Every event above means people on the move, often at scale and to tight deadlines. This is where chartering comes into its own. Rather than working around fixed commercial schedules, a charter is built entirely around your itinerary – the right aircraft, the right airport and timings that align with the fixture itself.
For sports clubs, associations, sponsors and travel organisers, we can support:
- Team and squad travel, including kit, equipment and backroom staff, with privacy and recovery time built in;
- Supporter and fan group movements of any size, from small parties to full aircraft;
- Corporate and hospitality travel for guests and partners;
- Logistics for sponsors, media and event personnel working across multiple venues.
Wherever the 2026/2027 calendar takes you, we can build the right charter around it. Get in touch to discuss your plans.
