The Para Sport Festival comprises a mixture of Take Part events and Competitive events.
Outside of traditional mega-events, like the Paralympics, Deaflympics, Virtus Global Games or Special Olympic Games, this is the first event of its kind.
Take Part events are open to participants of all skill levels. These events are designed to make inclusive and para sport accessible to anyone.
Competitive events are showcases of elite level para sport. Cheer on some of the most talented para athletes from around the UK and abroad.
The British & Irish Para Badminton International is the biggest para event Wales has ever hosted.
Our aim is simple: to welcome and showcase the finest Para Badminton athletes and officials, creating an outstanding experience for everyone involved, in order to inspire and grow our sport for years to come. We’re extremely excited to have this opportunity, which also features within the LA 2028 Paralympic cycle.
The British & Irish Para Badminton International 2025, is a Grade 2 / Level 1 tournament within the inaugural BWF Para Badminton World Circuit. This event is staged with the generous support of UK Sport, The Welsh Government, Sport Wales, Yonex & Disability Sport Wales. In collaboration with Badminton Ireland, Badminton Scotland and Badminton England.
