THE ART OF TENNIS
As Yorkshire gears up for another week of world class tennis with the return of the Lexus Ilkley Open, beyond will be at the heart of the action with our own retail unit at this year’s prestigious event.
When the Lexus Ilkley Open rolls into town in June, beyond will be courtside to serve up some of the coolest art, the most stylish fashion and a selection of specially commissioned prints and merchandise to mark the occasion.

As proud partners of the prestigous event and publishers of the official tournament programme, this year will see us bring the art of tennis to the thousands of fans who each year flock to Ilkley.
Available to buy will be original artwork, prints, hats, tote bags and clothing and we were delighted when our friends at Outside the Box agreed to create some incredible artwork of their own – one of which has been chosen to be made into a poster and which tennis fans will be able to buy at the tournament.

Ben Horner was one of six brilliant artists from The Print Group at OTB who were tasked with creating their very own Ilkley Open 2026 poster and it was his amazing work, appropriately entitled ‘The Winner’ that we decided should take home the crown.

It was a tough decision with the art students from the Ilkley charity, which caters for children and young adults with learning difficulties, producing some fantastic results.
And alongside Ben’s poster, tennis fans will be able to see the full collection of the group’s art throughout the week, with all profits from sales of their work going to the charity.
It promises to be a week to remember and in addition to the artwork, spectators will be able to pick up an item from our stylish active clothing range produced especially for the tournament by Ilkley sportswear firm Pendle.
If you’re heading to the Lexus Ilkley Open this year, make sure to pop in to the beyond stall and say hello. We’ll be open every day throughout the week from June 5th to June 14th.
