BBB Newsletter: August 2023
Hello, welcome to our August roundup!
Since our email in May we’ve had Antweights on a boat and Beetleweights underground, it’s been a great exploration of where can we fight robots, the answer seems to be everywhere! Thanks to all who came, we hope you had a great time. Now, here’s our next few events.
BBB x LHG: Bot Brewery Bash
3 Sep - Left Handed Giant Taproom, Bristol
This is our largest robots - 13.6kg BEVs featherweights fighting in the courtyard of a brewery while the weather is still nice (hopefully!) Fights kick off at around 1pm.

We’ll also be taking our antweight arena to RoboNerd in Wolverhampton on 2nd Sep!
