Charity professional wrestling show 'Bodyslams to Cancer' by Back Fight Factory Wrestling at The Drill, Lincoln.
Bodyslams to Cancer is coming to The Drill on Saturday 24 October, a charity wrestling night with Back Fight Factory Wrestling taking the ring. It's a bit of a departure from the usual music and comedy the venue hosts, so if you're not usually one for the squared circle, this is a good place to start.
The night is a charity event, and the name gives it away: it's wrestling for a cause. Back Fight Factory Wrestling are the ones providing the action, so you'll get a full card of matches rather than just a few one-offs. If you've never seen wrestling live, it's a different beast from watching it on a screen — the noise of the crowd is half the fun, and the energy in the room carries a lot of the show.
The Drill is a Grade II listed former drill hall on Free School Lane, built in 1890. It's a 500-capacity room in the heart of the city centre, and it's been run by Lincoln College Group since it reopened in 2021. It's mostly known as a live music venue, with touring-grade sound and lighting, but it works just as well for comedy and community events. It's an intimate space, so you're never far from the action, and it's easy to get to if you're coming from anywhere in town.
