After its overwhelming success at the debut event earlier this year, Inside Track will be returning to Studio Spaces, London on 26th February 2026, once again pitting the very best in protection against each other across eight rounds designed to engage brains and encourage a healthy dose of friendly rivalry.
In 2026, Inside Track will host up to twenty teams representing their respective company, but there will also be a greater opportunity to play along as part of Inside Track’s live studio audience, as advisers can now enter the ballot to win tickets.
Those who are successful in the ballot will put their knowledge to the test and gain in-depth industry insights while enjoying an exclusive hospitality experience and the opportunity to connect with up to one hundred fellow advisers throughout the day.
Furthermore, six of these individuals will have the chance to fight for the title as part of a wildcard team, made up of advisers selected at random from the successful ballot entries.
The eight rounds - Definitions, Technology, Added-Value, Insurance History, Underwriting, Diversity & Inclusion, Industry Insight, and Claims - will contain a wide range of questions spanning the industry’s past, present, and future, with each question having been decided by a panel of experts from across the protection space.

Alongside bringing the fun back to the protection industry, Inside Track 2026 (IT26), will be fundraising for financial education charity Money Ready, aligning with its values of bringing greater financial awareness to everyone across the UK.
"We’re delighted to be Inside Track’s chosen charity for 2026," Claire Quigley, Deputy CEO of Money Ready, said, "the spirit of the event perfectly mirrors our belief that financial education should be lifelong, engaging and even fun. It’s inspiring to see people across the protection and financial services industry embrace learning and development in this way."
"Understanding money empowers people to develop healthy financial habits, make confident choices and contribute to their own financial stability as well as the wider economy. Thanks to the support of Inside Track, we will be able to bring our impactful, expert-designed financial education to more people than ever in 2026."
Andy Shields, director at Protection Reporter’s parent company Barcadia Media, said: "We are so excited for Inside Track to return in 2026 after its successful debut earlier this year, and the live studio audience is a great opportunity for more advisers to boost their protection knowledge while networking with new and familiar faces from all over the industry."
"The addition of a wildcard team means that more brokers get the opportunity to engage in the friendly rivalry of the event, and I can’t wait to see everyone get involved on the day!”
