Battle of the Nations 2017

Arena La Monumental, Barcelona, Spain

The world’s number 1 medieval fighting tournament, “Battle of the Nations” 2017, was held at the historic, legendary bullfighting ring “La Monumental Arena” in Barcelona, Spain. It was the first major event at this venue in the last 7 years, and we had to re-build the inner part of the arena to comply with safety standards – it was a huge task, but we knew it was a smart investment of time and resources. We are proud that the sport of HMB had the honor of opening the doors of “La Monumental” arena for the first time in such a long time.

Around 800 fighters from 32 countries joined “Battle of the Nations” in Spain. The triathlon category was divided into 4 separate categories, and as a result we had 10 duel and 3 buhurt official categories. Despite the huge number of fights, we still managed to hold “Battle of the Nations” 2017 just in three full days. Two lists were built specifically for this Championship and they were used simultaneously all throughout the days of the event.
