It will see local, national and international businesses going head-to-head in everything from padel to dragon boat racing and from netball to running.
Around 100 golfers are expected to take to the course in competition with day one of the event taking place at the Forest of Arden, with the day two host now confirmed as Stratford Park, which is famous for its signature par three 17th over water.
Coventry is the official host for the 2026 UK Corporate Games, with the University of Warwick acting as a base for the event, but several Warwickshire venues have been added to stage different sports across the event.
Organisers are placing a particular focus on encouraging local SMEs to take part in 2026, highlighting the flexibility of the event which allows businesses to enter anything from a single individual through to teams across multiple events.
The Corporate Games is partnering with the Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber of Commerce to help reach more businesses in the region and encourage them to take part.
As well as competition, the Corporate Games are designed to deliver clear benefits for participating organisations, including improved staff health and wellbeing, stronger teamwork, and valuable opportunities to network with other Midlands and national businesses in a relaxed and social setting.
Regional businesses will get the opportunity to compete and network with a range of multi-national companies, with the likes of Barclays, Balfour Beatty, EY, and Places for People regularly entering teams.
Ryan Johnson, director of sport and communications, said: “We are thrilled to add The Stratford Park Hotel & Golf Club to our fantastic list of venues across Coventry and Warwickshire.
“This year’s Corporate Games has so much to offer businesses of all sizes and sectors meaning they can enter single individuals into one event or dozens of competitors across multiple events.
“It’s going to be great few days in August!”
Beverley Haynes, general manager of The Stratford Park Hotel & Golf Glub, said: “We can’t wait to welcome teams from the across the country to our 18-hole par-72 parkland golf course.

“With our course now being over 32 years old the tree-lined fairways offer a fantastic day out for golf, networking and a bit of healthy rivalry.”
Gurprit Singh, business engagement manager at Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber of Commerce, said: “The 2026 UK Corporate Games is an exciting opportunity for businesses and their staff to get involved with great sport, team-building and networking this August.
