LOS ANGELES – As efforts to combat the outbreak of the coronavirus COVID-19 continue, hundreds of countries worldwide have implemented ‘lockdown’ measures which include home quarantine, social distancing and a prohibition on public gatherings.

With these measures remaining in place in the Netherlands for the foreseeable future, GLORY has today announced the postponement of the GLORY 78: ‘BADR vs BENNY’ event which was scheduled for Saturday, June 20 at the Ahoy Arena in Rotterdam.

Tickets which have already been purchased for the event will remain valid for the rescheduled date.

Fans who currently hold tickets for GLORY 78: BADR vs BENNY will receive a promo code which can be used to secure a new ticket for the rescheduled event. If they are unable to attend the rescheduled event, their ticket will be refunded.

GLORY is closely monitoring the situation in the Netherlands and is liaising with venues and other relevant agencies on setting a new date for the GLORY 78: BADR vs BENNY event.

Developments will be notified to fans via email newsletter and GLORY’s official social media accounts.

“The measures in place are essential in combating the spread of COVID-19 and the health and safety of our fans, athletes, staff and the wider public remains our primary concern,” said GLORY CEO Marshall Zelaznik.
