Join us: Iftar 2026

Following last week’s announcement, England Boxing will be hosting our second annual Iftar on Sunday 1st March 2026, taking place in the Lion’s Den at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield.

Following the success of last year’s event, we are delighted to once again bring members of the boxing family and wider community together to share in this special moment during the holy month of Ramadan. The evening is open to everyone, whether you observe Ramadan or simply want to learn more, connect with others and experience the spirit of togetherness that defines our sport.

We warmly encourage boxers, coaches, officials, volunteers and friends of England Boxing from all backgrounds to join us as we come together to break fast at sunset.

The event will feature a relaxed and welcoming programme, including:

• A Q&A session with a panel of guest speakers

• Education session on Ramadan, offering insight for those who would like to learn more

• Interactive activities to bring people together

• Food served at sunset to open the fast

• A dedicated prayer space for those who wish to use it

At England Boxing, we believe in creating inclusive spaces where everyone feels welcome, respected and part of the community. This Iftar is a chance to celebrate diversity, share experiences and strengthen the bonds that make our sport so special.
