Following three successful rebooted series of Gladiators, along with two Celebrity Specials in 2024 and 2025, it is now possible to apply for tickets to see the show being recorded for TV this summer, at the Utilita Arena in Sheffield.

Fans are now being invited to apply for tickets through the ApplauseStore website, which deals with tickets to a wide range of popular TV shows, including Britain's Got Talent, Deal or No Deal, Big Brother and more.

Can I get tickets?

At the moment fans are allowed to apply for tickets to see Gladiators being filmed in July and August 2026, including one date for Celebrity Gladiators, however it doesn't guarantee entry to see the show being filmed.

You can apply through the ApplauseStore website, which states: 'Gladiators is back, and YOU are invited to experience this spectacular, iconic family entertainment show LIVE at Utilita Arena in Sheffield.

'Father and son duo Bradley and Barney Walsh are back to host the biggest, most exhilarating entertainment show on TV!

'Feel the electric atmosphere and discover how all the action is captured for television.'

Fans are invited to request tickets through the website.

Do the tickets guarantee entry?

The tickets do not guarantee entry. You have to turn up on the day and exchange them at the venue for seats.
