With 350+ teams and 12,000 people joining us on tour each year, the Tigers Challenge is the biggest Rugby festival of its kind in the UK – there’s nowhere better to take your team on tour in 2026!
Staged by Leicester Tigers and ESF Events at Butlin’s award winning resorts in Bognor Regis (West Sussex) and Minehead (Somerset), the Tigers Challenge is a professionally organised touring rugby festival that brings U7 – U12 teams and U12 & U14 girls teams from all over the UK and further afield together, for a fantastic weekend of Rugby & Fun.
The experience of being away together on tour is as important as the actual rugby festival itself for many teams – there’s no better way to boost team morale. The Tigers Challenge is staged at Butlin’s award winning resorts in Minehead (Somerset) and Bognor Regis (West Sussex).
Our spectacular celebrity presentation ceremonies are a tour highlight and the perfect way to close the festival. Special guests have included Martin Johnson, Lewis Moody, Will Greenwood, Geordan Murphy, Neil Back, Matt Tait, Tom Croft, George Ford, George Chuter, Freddie Tuilagi and many more.
