2024 will be a huge year for sport. Whether you are a rugby, cricket, or motorsport fan there are plenty of amazing events to experience live with Gullivers Sports Travel!

The Guinness Six Nations tournament is sure to be full of excitement with lots of nations in the mix to win the championship. It will be interesting to see how England fare with a mix-up to the squad with Owen Farrell not playing and Courtney Lawes retiring.

In Formula 1 there is a change to the schedule this year with a record of 24 races for the first time, up from 22 races in 2023. Will Red Bull be able to maintain their form from 2023 and how will the extra races impact teams and drivers?

England cricket fans will welcome the return of captain Ben Stokes for the upcoming India Test Series with the hopes that they can start the New Year with a test series win and continue the ‘bazball’ playing style throughout 2024.

We asked the experts at Gullivers Sports Travel to round up some of the major sporting events that you can enjoy in 2024 – from cricket in the West Indies to Formula 1 in Monaco and rugby in the historical city of Rome there is so much on offer!
