Podium Speakers are proud to present you with the opportunity to spend time with a very special person. 

An Evening With Kevin Sinfield CBE opens the door for you to hear all about the life of a human who has given himself a reason to achieve superhuman things; superhuman things that now seem normal to him.

Be prepared to walk away from spending the evening with Kevin feeling inspired, grateful, and enriched. 

Kevin Sinfield is one of the most successful players in rugby league history. Having won many championships and Challenge Cup successes as part of great Leeds Rhinos teams - he also earned individual accolades as winner of the Lance Todd Trophy, The Harry Sunderland Trophy, and is one of only five British players to ever win the coveted Golden Boot. To add to this, Kevin has received: an MBE in 2014 for services to rugby league football, an OBE in 2021 for services to rugby league football and charitable fundraising, and a CBE in 2024 for services to motor neurone disease awareness.

It’s not just the awe-inspiring feats of achievement that make Kevin what he is, it’s the understated way in which he does them; to compliment the amazing mindset and humbleness in which he carries his gruelling challenges out. 

On 14th May 2026, we have the pleasure of hearing all about it.

Kevin is a major fundraiser for charities associated with Motor Neurone Disease. He started by running seven marathons in seven days, and since then he has continued to push himself and others through more physical challenges to raise much-needed funds and awareness for this cruel and debilitating disease.

To date Kevin and his team have raised 10s of millions of pounds from challenges such as:

7 Marathons in 7 days in 2020, 101 miles in 24 hours in 2021, 7 Marathons in 7 days 2022, 7 Marathons in 7 days plus The Extra Mile in 2023, Running Home For Christmas 2024, and a new challenge on the horizon for the coming December 2025.

Of course, we cannot give you any story of Kevin without mentioning friendships, and one friendship in particular with Rob Burrow.

Kev and Rob have been friends since they were 14 and 12 respectively. They went on and sat next to each other every day in the dressing room throughout 15 years of rugby, and were at the very heart of one of rugby league’s greatest teams. Their friendship and camaraderie extended beyond the field, with their bond growing ever stronger over the years. From shared victories to facing life’s challenges, Sinfield and Burrow exemplify the enduring power of friendship, and an evening with Kevin would not be complete without hearing about this special friendship.

Our host:

Pete Emmett - THE compere and funny man of UK sport. Pete is one of the most popular match-day hosts and comperes in the country. Guaranteed to bring some light-hearted humour to the event, we are incredibly grateful to work with a host as talented and equally hilarious as Pete. 

This event with Kevin receives plaudits everywhere it travels. It is not to be missed.
