Unforgettable experiences through football and media
At MediaFives, we believe football and media have the power to change the world. Our passion is to bring them together by creating unforgettable experiences for people and businesses.
We are the proud architects of the Festival of Football, the only football event dedicated to people that work in the media and advertising industry.
Centred around an annual five-a-side football tournament and tough skills challenges; media agencies, media owners and adtech vendors get the chance to compete and determine who is the best team in media.
Bringing Football and Media Together
Rivalries renewed!
Excuses have already started!
Linkby were the first media owner to take the crown, but can they do what nobody has ever been able to do and repeat!
The January transfer window opened with a bang, we saw two captains depart their teams: Stephen D'Arcy Smith has left EssenceMediaCom and Fergus Baker left Blis.
The narratives are in full effect but on Friday 16th May 2026 we'll find out who the best team in media land is.

Festival of Football 2026
Thank you to everyone who attended and supported the MediaFives 2025 Festival of Football — it was an outstanding day!
Once again, the sun was shining, the ballers showed up, the rivalries were intense, the BBQ was finger-licking good, and the networking was invaluable.
Congratulations to Linkby, our very first Media Owner winners! They were our 2024 Plate Winners and said, "Thank you very much — but for 2025, we’d like to upgrade," and wow, did they deliver! Commiserations to IPG Mediabrands, who came very close but finished as runners-up.
