The Reims Arena had chosen MMA (mixed martial arts) for its first event.
The new performance hall hosted Hexagone MMA 3 on Saturday.
And the public responded, since more than 3,000 people attended the 7 proposed fights, reports France Bleu Champagne-Ardenne.
A first for MMA outside Paris
Some spectators had come from afar to satisfy their passion for this sport legalized only in 2020 in France.
It was the first competition organized outside of Paris.
The Reims Arena is a 12,000 m² complex dedicated to hosting concerts and sporting events.
It can accommodate up to 9,000 people in concert configuration and between 3,500 and 5,500 for competitions.
50 million euros have been invested to offer this new cultural place in Reims.
