Roller Derby Charity Tournament

Louisey Rider Cup

16th May 2026

Spectator tickets on sale now!

The Louisey Rider Cup is an annual roller derby tournament hosted by Nottingham Roller Derby. It has been created to celebrate the life of skater Louise Wright, aka Louisey Rider #66, who was sadly taken from us in a cycling accident in 2014. 

A key part of the UK roller derby calendar, this annual event has so far made over £40,000 for road safety charity Brake. Join us on 16th May 2026 at Harvey Hadden Sports Village. 

Skater tickets have sold out (quick as a flash), but spectator tickets are available to buy now. We keep the spectator ticket prices low to carry on Lou's work of making roller derby accessible and fun for everyone.
