Join Events Travel for the 2025–26 NRMA Insurance Ashes Series — cricket’s greatest rivalry.
The Ashes is one of the most celebrated and storied rivalries in world sport, embodying over 140 years of cricketing history between Australia and England. Born in 1882 after Australia’s dramatic victory at The Oval, a satirical obituary declared that “English cricket had died” and its ashes would be taken to Australia. From this moment, a sporting icon was born, symbolised by the now-legendary Ashes urn.
Over the years, the Ashes has evolved into the ultimate Test series—a battle of skill, endurance, and national pride. It has produced unforgettable moments, nail-biting finishes, and cricketing heroes whose legacies stand the test of time: Bradman, Botham, Warne, Stokes, and many more. Following the controversies at Lord’s during the last series, the 2025–26 Ashes promises to be fiercely contested, with history, tradition, and bragging rights on the line.
This upcoming series will be unmissable, with Perth Stadium making its Ashes debut as the opening venue. The series will then move to iconic Australian stadiums: the Gabba in Brisbane, Adelaide Oval, the legendary Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) for the Boxing Day Test, and the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) for the final Test. These world-class venues will once again play host to the cricketing drama as new chapters are written in Ashes history.

The booking was easy
The booking was easy, professional and a great team to deal with. Any questions we had were answered in a timely manner and friendly staff. Second time we have booked with them and we are happy with their service. Thank you.
Very convenient. Book everything together.
Booking through Events travel gave us the opportunity to purchase Australian Open tennis tickets prior to the general ticket sales. They gave us an extensive list of hotels to choose from. We booked tickets at Rod Laver arena which we were very happy with. We hope to use Events Travel again.
