Did you ever dream of standing in the arena as a gladiator? Under the guidance of one of our experienced fighters, you will learn all about the combat techniques and weapons used by these top athletes of the ancient world. You’ll train and eat as they did 2000 years ago. And along the way you’ll find out lots of exciting things. For example, were the gladiators like the footballs stars of today? Were women allowed to fight too? Were there gladiators in Augusta Raurica? What evidence do we have? Finally, of course, you’ll also be able to try on some “real” armour.
