Really great fun - you get a mix of seeing training styles and some bouts at the end too. Audience members can go in a ballot to participate. The snack bag was a good souvenir.

Very easy to use. Convenient to be able to view tickets without an internet connection.“You just need to download the app—it’s very quick, and the tickets are easily accessible. The staff on site can scan them quickly, which helps avoid unnecessary queues at the ticket counters.
