Baie-Comeau wrestling benefit gala returning in 2027

The benefit wrestling event, La bataille à Baie-Comeau, is scheduled to return for a second edition on May 29, 2027. The inaugural gala held at the Alcoa Sports Centre on May 30 attracted 1,100 spectators, marking the return of professional wrestling to the area after a nearly 40-year absence.

Organized by the Comité nord-côtier des accidentés de la route, the event serves as a fundraiser to support services for individuals living with the consequences of road accidents, specifically including traumatic brain injuries. Confirmed participants for the 2027 event include wrestler Marko Estrada and local figure Claude Malouin, known by his persona Claude Maloon. Full programming details will be released in the coming months.
