Since 2005, almost every year the Academy organizes A Fil di Spada - La Maratona di Scherma ("By The Edge Of The Sword - The Fencing Marathon"), the most important non-competitive Italian fencing event.  The performances have always been carried out in the most beautiful squares of Rome, with the background of Rome’s most famous monuments, enhancing these events with some "natural" set design which are really breathtaking.
