Entities: Lorenzo Musetti · Filip Arnaldi · Martina Favaretto · Rosenborg BK · CFR Cluj

Overview

In late July 2026 Hong Kong became the focal point of international fencing. The city opened the Kerry World Fencing Championships, running from 22 to 30 July, marking its first time hosting the elite tournament and drawing athletes from more than 120 nations. Jewellery group Chow Tai Fook acted as the diamond sponsor, presenting each of the 24 Hong Kong competitors with specially designed gold bracelets, while singer‑athlete Jackson Wang appeared at AsiaWorld‑Expo on 25 July to support the team.

The following day, the broader sports schedule highlighted Hong Kong’s role on 27 July with a fencing World Cup event featuring top seed Martina Favaretto. This addition emphasized the city’s continued prominence in the month‑long fencing programme alongside other global competitions in tennis, shooting, football and more.

Together, the announcements illustrate Hong Kong’s heightened involvement in the 2026 international fencing calendar, from hosting the flagship World Championships to staging a high‑profile World Cup during the same period.
