MCUSA EVENT TYPES
EXHIBITION
Exhibitions are public events designed to showcase medieval combat skills. They are less formal, with a focus on education and entertainment rather than competitive results. Match results are not officially recorded by MCUSA, and a marshal trainee may be present instead of a certified marshal.
​
These events can be hosted and attended by only one team, but MCUSA recommends that the Event Host invites nearby teams to participate. Exhibitions can be run with either a traditional tournament format or without a strict format.
Must Know's for Hosting
Hosting your own event with MCUSA doesn't have to be hard! There are three event types available for MCUSA endorsement: Exhibition, Training Camp, or Buhurt International event. Each event type has a different set of criteria set forth by MCUSA and BI (where applicable).
However, all event types endorsed by MCUSA must have the following:
​
