MediaCity is proud to announce The Broadcast Sport Content Summit is returning to dock10 Studios, MediaCity on Thursday 5 March 2026.
The popular free-to-attend event focuses on the craft and commercial appeal of sports content across platforms.
The event provides a platform for sports content producers, sports clubs, sports federations, athletes, brands, and sports broadcasters to discuss best practice in making and distributing sports content.
The Broadcast Sport Content Summit covers everything from live sports coverage to branded content, sports documentaries to social media.
It brings together the industry in the North of England to talk through what works and what doesn’t, and to discuss the future of sports content and sports broadcasting in a fragmented world where linear TV, social media, YouTube, TikTok, sports apps and more are all constantly competing for the attention of sports fans.
Andy Waters, head of Studios at dock10, MediaCity said:
“MediaCity’s dock10 studios has a proud track record of powering some of the world’s biggest sporting broadcast moments including the Euros, World Cup, the NFL, Match of the Day, Olympics, FA Cup and the Champions League to name a few. The Broadcast Sport Content Summit is a strong example of MediaCity’s continued commitment to innovation and excellence in sports production, bringing together the people shaping the future of sports broadcasting.
With world-class studios and unmatched connectivity, we’re uniquely placed to support the evolving demands of live sport, content creation and distribution. Bringing the industry together for a day of insight and collaboration feels like a natural extension of what we do every day.”
2026 marks the fifth Broadcast Sport Content Summit at dock10 Studios.
The full programme and speaker list will be revealed in the coming weeks.
