Mexico’s iconic masked superheroes return to the UK to star in The Greatest Spectacle of Lucha Libre, an electrifying show that will take place at London's iconic York Hall in Bethnal Green.

A Mexican popular-culture phenomenon, Lucha Libre was first introduced in the early 20th century and has since developed into a unique form of professional wrestling characterised by vibrant attire, impressive techniques and high-flying moves. For one day only, the York Hall will be transformed into a Mexican Arena, where spectators can immerse themselves in a mythical and ferocious world in which “Good” battles “Evil” through fierce and flamboyant competition.

Now famous the world over, Lucha Libre is one of Mexico’s biggest sports, drawing thousands of people every week to the many wrestling arenas across the country. Translated as “free fighting”, Lucha Libre wrestlers are divided into Rudos, who use underhanded tactics and break the rules, and Técnicos, who play by the rule book and use more complex and spectacular moves, each Luchador has his own distinct character. More than just regular wrestlers, Luchadores are regarded as iconic legends and the superheroes of Mexico. 

Full line-up to be announced soon.
