With GLORY 39 and GLORY 40 already scheduled through April, GLORY has announced three more events including a return to New York City that will round out the kickboxing promotion’s first half schedule for 2017.

According to a press release on Friday, the dates and cities of the announced events are as follows: GLORY 41 will take place at Brabanthallen’s-Hertogenboschin in Den Bosch, Netherlands on May 20, GLORY 42 will take place at AccorHotels Arena in Paris, France on June 10, and GLORY 43, which will be held at The Theater at MSG on July 21, marks the promotion’s return to New York City for the first time since 2013.

“We’re off to a strong start this year in terms of excitement about the GLORY brand and providing the best possible experience for live audiences,” said GLORY CEO Jon Franklin. “With two incredibly successful events already in the books, for mid-year, we’re now looking ahead to iconic venues in familiar locales, including the biggest and brightest cities in the world. Then it’s on to new territory in the second half of 2017, combining visits to major markets with highly anticipated debuts in others.”

Former featherweight champion, Robin van Roosmalen (37-7) will headline GLORY 41 against an opponent to be named later, and GLORY 42 is expected to host a lightweight “Contender” tournament as well as welterweight and lightweight title fights.
