Hawks’ fixtures for the 2026 Vitality Blast have been confirmed, with Utilita Bowl set to host seven T20 matchdays, including five men’s and women’s double headers, in what promises to be one of the most exciting T20 summers ever on the south coast.
The Hawks begin their 2026 campaign with a double header away to Somerset on 22 May, a repeat of the dramatic Men’s Final in September where Hampshire narrowly missed out on the trophy.
Half-term double headers then kick off the Hawks’ home schedule on 26 and 29 May against Essex and Surrey, offering two huge days of action for fans and families.
The Surrey fixture on 29 May is set to be one of the standout moments of the group stage as we celebrate 25 years of the bowl. With some of domestic cricket’s biggest names heading to the south coast for a high-profile double header, we’ll also be hosting a retro party night packed with live music, iconic 2001 bangers, throwback fun, and Vitality Blast action.
One of T20 cricket’s most iconic rivalries resumes on 2 June, as Hampshire Hawks face Sussex Sharks at Utilita Bowl in the latest chapter of the El Clasicoast derby.
On Sunday, 28 June, Hawks women take on Durham in what promises to be a fantastic family day out, combining top-class cricket with a great day of entertainment.
July brings even more to look forward to, with two further double headers on Sunday 5th and Wednesday 8th.
Ideal for companies, colleagues and work socials, these fixtures offer great opportunities to enjoy group ticket packages or matchday hospitality.
In a major change to the competition structure, the Quarter-Finals and Finals Day will also take place in July for 2026, creating a more compact and high-intensity Blast campaign that brings the knockout drama forward into the height of summer.
