🎲 We’re Back!
What is Hertfordshire Monopoly Challenge?
Imagine Monopoly brought to life on the streets of London with our interactive, life-sized challenge!
Your team will dash around the capital, ticking off locations from our very own Monopoly board. Snap photos, crack clues, and collect Monopoly money along the way. The team with the biggest fortune at the end will be crowned champions!
Pick your team. Find your mascot. Get ready to play Monopoly like never before.
Don’t forget to share your exploits on Facebook and on Instagram using #hertsscoutsmonopoly.
What's new for 2026?
- Badges on the day! No more waiting — this year, you’ll walk away with your limited-edition Monopoly 2026 badge straight after the event.
- Certificate of Achievement! Every team will also take home an official certificate to mark their success.
- Loved last year’s start point? We’re keeping it! Once again, you’ll check in north of the river near King’s Cross before heading off on your adventure.
Hertfordshire Monopoly Challenge has been held in different locations, but over the last few live events it has been held in London. During lockdown, we went virtual which meant we could go international visiting may sights around the world!
This year, Monopoly Challenge will be held in London.
