WST is thrilled to announce that Victorian Plumbing, the UK’s leading bathroom retailer, will return as title partner of one of snooker’s greatest tournaments, the UK Championship.
The Victorian Plumbing UK Championship will run from November 29th to December 7th in York. World number one Judd Trump will defend the title having beaten Barry Hawkins 10-8 in a dramatic final last year.

With a history stretching back to 1977, the UK Championship is one of the highlights of the snooker calendar and it is part of the sport’s Triple Crown Series along with the World Championship and the Masters. Televised across the globe by broadcasters including BBC, TNT Sports, Eurosport, CCTV5 and WST Play, the event sees 32 players battling for the famous trophy over nine days.
WST’s Chief Commercial Officer Peter Wright said: “Last year’s Victorian Plumbing UK Championship was such a fantastic event with so many great moments including a 147 from Zhang Anda and that incredible final won by Judd Trump. For the team at Victorian Plumbing this was their first experience of snooker and they were astounded by our sport’s capacity to captivate fans and create edge-of-your-seat drama. We look forward to working closely with them again on this highly-anticipated event which has a massive audience across the planet.”
Victorian Plumbing Chief Marketing Officer Joe Pascoe said: “We are delighted to renew our partnership with the UK Championship for 2025. One of the very highlights of the snooker season, the UK Championship represents the skill, elegance, and entertainment that a whole new generation of snooker fans has come to recognise. Last year’s Victorian Plumbing UK Championship was an incredible experience that capped a year of expansion and innovation for us both as a business, and in the ways we are reaching and connecting with our audience. We can’t wait to see what is in store for 2025.”
