Fight Night Combat

The European Championships are heading to BREMEN - 2025-10-02

This year the Fight Night Combat European Championships are heading to a new city: Bremen!

Dates: Friday 5th December to Sunday 7th December

Venue: Sporthaus of ATS Buntentor, Kornstraße 167 Bremen

We are excited to have a fantastic venue open for three days of juggling, with adjoining rooms for catering and sleeping.

The Open and Women's Championships are the main events, and the top jugglers in the 2025 Race Rankings are invited to take part.

In addition to the invited participants, other jugglers can join in with the Team Combat, Zombie Combat, and the other tournaments and games.

We are also planning a special Wildcard Qualifying Tournament to decide the final participant in the Open Championships, so if you've taken part in Fight Nights in 2025 but don't have the needed ranking points, this is your last chance to make the final eight.

We only have space for about 30 extra jugglers at this mini combat-juggling convention, so please register by emailing: Combatcon@protonmail.com

Include the following information:

• Name
• Days you'd like to attend (Fri/Sat/Sun)
• Age if under 18
• Phone number
• Food preferences

The final cost will be about €30-€40. On-site accommodation is "convention camping" only, so bring your sleeping bags and mats!

Website fixed but still a work in progress - 2025-07-08

The website is back! After a month, I've got a new version of the website working and back online. It might look exactly like the old website, but it's all completely new in terms of coding and technology and server stuff. The old website code was all written in 2013 and 2014, and hadn't been touched since then, except for minor features and bug fixes. The outdated technology was no longer supported by the web host, and so it all had to be fixed. Along with other issues, the whole site went down. But with lots of prodding, and with the help of new ai tools, it seems to be mostly working.

The bad news is that a lot of minor pages and features aren't there yet, but I'll get to them over the coming weeks.

The good news is that long term, this change will allow for new features and updates and redesigns (maybe a dedicated mobile version for running tournaments at conventions) far more easily and frequently than previously.

Thanks for your patience.

Major Tournaments 2025 - 2025-04-26

Announcing the Four MAJOR Tournaments of the 2025 Fight Night Combat season!!!

• Netherlands Jongleer Festival 🇳🇱 - 750 points - May 29th 2025
• European Juggling Convention 🇪🇺 - 1250 points - August 6th 2025
• Hamburg Jonglierconvention 🇩🇪 - 750 points - October 23rd 2025
• Fight Night Combat European Championships 🇪🇺 - 750 points - date and location to be confirmed (Nov/Dec 2025)

These are the four most prestigious tournaments of the year, with the highest level of competition and the most ranking points on the line. Last year Jasper Moens won three of the four of the Majors (at the British, Netherlands, and European juggling conventions) with Kilian Maidhof winning the European Championships.

The European Championships is an exclusive invite-only tournament, where winning one of the first three Majors is the quickest way to secure an invite. The rest of the places are filled up with the top seven jugglers in the 2025 Open Race Rankings… plus one special wildcard invite for an extra juggler to spice up the field (previously Wes Peden, Yaron Davidovich, Matias Alarcon Perez, etc).

Alongside the European Championships open tournament, the event will also host a Women’s European Championship tournament, with the top eight jugglers in the Women’s Race Rankings 2025 receiving an invite.

The other big tournaments filling out the 2025 Fight Night calendar are national-level 500 point events, with currently-scheduled tournaments in Italy (Celleno Juggling Convention), Norway, and the USA (IJA Summer Festival). There are always more tournaments being added to the calendar though, especially at the 250 level, so check it out here: https://www.fightnightcombat.com/tournament-calendar-2025.html
