SAVE THE DATE: WORLD FENCING DAY 2024

Fencers around the world will celebrate World Fencing Day on Saturday 14th September, 2024. Here are some ways you and your club can get involved!

2024 has been a brilliant year for fencing, especially after the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. The FIE wants to help the global fencing family build on the success of fencing with the 2024 World Fencing Day, taking place on Saturday 14th September.

The FIE 2024 World Fencing Day theme is “We Welcome the World to Fencing”. This is a great theme for BF Members and gives clubs the opportunity to reach and share fencing with people and communities in their regions and share this amazing sport with the world.

The FIE has provided a resource pack to help you celebrate and engage with people to get them interested in, participate and get excited about fencing.

You can find the resource kit here: 2024 World Fencing Day Resource Pack

In this resource kit you will find the following:

  • Posters you can print or use on social media, to which you can customize and add your own local information (such as a location where you will have a fencing demonstration, celebration, or “try fencing” event).
  • Banners and graphics to use on all marketing platforms you may have.
  • Selfie frames you can use to create cardboard cutouts for social media.
  • Please share these graphics with your clubs, schools, coaches and fencers!

The FIE want you to plan events for World Fencing Day and then send them videos, photos and stories about the results.

Please send videos, images, and other materials via email to: [email protected]

The FIE will share this on their social media platforms – they have a very large social media following, and this will give fencing in your area a lot of global attention!

We encourage everyone to actively engage with the FIE on social media. When publishing related content, please tag FIE social media accounts (check the handles below) and use the hashtag #WorldFencingDay2024.
