The Ides of March - 2026
Beware the Ides of March!
Welcome to the Ides of March, where sabre fencers come together to test their skills under a 19th century inspired ruleset.
This is our 7th Ides of March tournament, and this year expect longer bouts, larger pools, and significantly more time on the piste, giving fencers the opportunity to really show their skills.
For the first time, the event will feature A and B tier finals, ensuring more meaningful matches, more medals on offer, and a genuine pathway to a podium finish for fencers at every stage of their development.
Whether you’re newer to sabre and looking for a competition experience, or a seasoned sabreur keen to test yourself against deep pools and extended fights, Ides of March is your event.
The fencing arena awaits. Will you answer the call?
