The globally recognised adventure course, Tough Mudder, returns to Malpas, Cheshire on the 9th - 10th September 2023. Up to 10,000 participants will push themselves to the limits on a course that takes no prisoners.

With multiple distances over the course of the weekend, participants will look to take on a range of classic Tough Mudder obstacles from icy plunges, huge net climbs right through to electrifying passages.

Located within easy travel distances of Liverpool, Manchester and Birmingham, Tough Mudder North West is a real community favourite that attracts crowds from far and wide. Widely known as Tough Mudder's muddiest course, you'll be unrecognisable come the finish line but it will all be worth it for the renowned finishers headband.

Event details and distances

Tough Mudder 5K: A Tough Mudder classic, the course will host both newcomers and returning participants in an attempt to navigate across 13 menacing obstacles and concrete thick mud, making it a 5K like no other.

Tough Mudder 10K: For whoever's willing to back themselves, we’re challenging you to take on this monstrous 10K, containing 20 of its renowned obstacles. Participants have no choice but to trust their fellow mudder in an event that requires an extreme level of teamwork and determination.

Tough Mudder 15K: Anyone who completes the penultimate challenge deserves a lot of respect. Veterans and newcomers willing to step up will face 30 obstacles across 15 long kilometres. Its notoriety speaks for itself, you have been warned.

Tough Mudder Infinity: An endurance experience like nothing else on earth, same obstacles, same course, but for infinity. Mudders will test themselves in a bid to become the ultimate obstacle course runner. The exclusive 50K club is looking for new members, could it be you?

1 Mile Lidl Mudder Adventure: The famous Lidl Mudder sets to challenge future obstacle course legends as kids of abilities will need to work hard as a team to conquer the one mile long mud bath, which is scattered with classic obstacles.

Matthew Brooke, Managing Director of Tough Mudder Said: “We’re beyond excited to head back to Chesire for another action packed weekend. Tough Mudder North West has always been a favourite of mine that always seems to test our entrants to the limit. Surrounded by the majestic Cholmondeley Castle, the stage will be set for a picture perfect, muddy weekend."

Tough Mudder welcomes people of all ages, sizes and fitness levels with open arms to come out and challenge their mental and physical toughness. Whether participants are returning for the challenge or newly attending, it’s set to be an adventure packed and adrenaline fuelled weekend.

The YouGov Big Survey on Weddings

The YouGov Big Survey on Weddings

The journey that begins with "will you marry me" and ends with "I do" transforms a couple's lives in multiple ways, but it also involves a huge number of decisions, as planning a wedding is no mean feat. Every guest will have an opinion on what a wedding should be like: from what's classy and tacky, to which traditions should be followed and which can be discarded. To help prospective couples get a grip on what these potential guests hope to see in a wedding, YouGov's new Big Survey on Weddings examines all these key debates about what should and shouldn't feature on the big day, including looking at the decisions that brides and grooms would make themselves. The study is part a Big Surveys project: a series of in-depth surveys on British society. It was conducted between 7-9 August 2026, with a sample of 1,784 adults in the UK aged 18 and above.

Brits are swapping the 'big day' for the 'right day' as searches for intimate wedding venues soar

Couples are increasingly choosing quality time over large guest lists, with new search data revealing a growing demand for intimate weddings and stylish registry office ceremonies.

Expert at Cake Box, shares 2026 wedding trends

Weddings may be rooted in tradition, but 2026 is seeing couples put their own spin on the big day. From reimagined wedding cakes to more personal, less conventional celebrations, today's couples are increasingly choosing what feels meaningful to them rather than simply following the rules. To explore how wedding traditions are evolving, Okay Rahman, Head of Product and in-house cake expert at Cake Box, shares their insight into the biggest wedding trends of 2026 — and how couples are putting a fresh, modern twist on some of the most-loved elements of the day. He said... "We're seeing that wedding cakes are becoming much more personal in 2026. The traditional tiered cake certainly hasn't disappeared, but couples are feeling less tied to the idea that a wedding cake has to look or taste a certain way.
