Civil War: England v Wales comes to Cardiff

The poster is out and the date is set: BKBH's England versus Wales show, billed Civil War — The Lion, The Dragon & The Four Corners, lands at the Vale Arena in Cardiff on Saturday 6 February 2027.

Date

Sat 6 Feb 2027

Venue

Vale Arena, Cardiff

Doors

1:30pm

First bout

2:30pm

Micky's Pro & Amateur Boxing Academy is named on the bill in association with the promotion, and the academy's own Nicky Rees is in the main event, matched against Donovan under a Wales versus England strap.

What is confirmed

• Saturday 6 February 2027 at the Vale Arena, Vale Resort, Hensol, Cardiff CF72 8JY.
• Doors at 1:30pm, first bout at 2:30pm — the same running order as the academy's Maidstone shows.
• Main event: Nicky Rees versus Donovan, billed Wales against England.
• The promotion is BKBH, in association with Micky's Pro & Amateur Boxing Academy.

The rest of the card has not been released. As with every show the academy promotes, bouts appear on the event page as soon as the matchmaker confirms them, and nothing is listed before it is signed.

Why Cardiff

The academy's Welsh connection is not new. Rees is based in Neath, trains at the New Romney gym under head coach Tony Barratt, and brings a Welsh honour list with him: Warlords Heavyweight Anglo Welsh Champion, the Welsh Combat Series, and the 90kg and 85kg Welsh titles.

A Cardiff date in February puts that link on a bigger stage, at a venue that has already hosted bare-knuckle cards in South Wales.

Tickets and travel

Ticket prices for the Cardiff show have not been published yet. When they are, they will appear on the tickets page alongside the Maidstone dates, and the box office line is the quickest way to ask about availability, VIP tables and booths.

For everything already confirmed, the event page carries the venue address, door times and the card as it stands.
