Face your Gladiator II destiny with strength and honor at the Colosseum

(BPT) - For centuries, the Roman Colosseum has been the stage for epic battles and legendary gladiators. Now, for the first time in nearly 2,000 years, the Colosseum returns to its original purpose as a venue for performances, inviting daring warriors to step foot inside the historic arena to forge their own paths and shape their destinies.

Those brave enough to rise to the challenge will follow in the footsteps once traversed by victorious fighters, suit up in historically accurate armor, and put their skills to the test to determine their fate in battle. May you emerge triumphant and establish yourself as the ultimate gladiator, earning your place in history.

'Think you have what it takes to become the supreme gladiator?' asks Lucius. 'This trial will separate the weak from the strong, where only those with true strength and honor will rise above. For the courageous who accept the challenge, I open the gates of the Colosseum for you to prove your worth before the highest of Rome. Suit up and get ready for battle, for what we do in life echoes in eternity…'

About the Experience

Located at the Colosseum in Rome, Italy, guests can request to book one of two, three-hour experiences occurring May 7 to 8, 2025, at $0 per person1. Each experience has capacity for up to 16 guests each (8 guests and their +1). As young warriors step foot inside the historic arena, here's what awaits:

  • The patron will meet you at the Colosseum after sunset and lead you inside. Whether you emerge from this night victor or vanquished, know this - your eyes will embrace a sight not often seen. The memory of the Colosseum aglimmer in candlelight will be yours.
  • Descend into the hypogeum, the underground chambers where gladiators prepare for battle. There, you will don armor that most closely reflects your gladiator type, whether that be murmillo, thraex, provocator, retiarius or contrarete. Choose wisely.
  • Traverse the torch-lit, labyrinthine bowels of the Colosseum where Maximus and countless other warriors walked before you. Reflect on their fate, and yours, as you trace their historic steps.
  • Savor the symphony of swords and shields as seasoned gladiators engage in a thrilling showdown for your benefit. You must study them - for your turn will soon follow.
  • Enjoy a spread of victuals like grapes, pomegranates, almonds and walnuts. You're a gladiator, not an emperor. You cannot afford to be gluttonous. Overindulgence will dull your senses and slow your reflexes.
  • Train in the art of gladiator combat and test your mettle as you face off against your fellow warriors. A summa rudis - your referee - will ultimately determine your fate. May you taste the sweetness of glory with infestus pollex and join the ranks of victorious gladiators since time immemorial.

And don't forget to catch Gladiator II, only in cinemas this November.
