What is the Hookah Battle Hall of Fame

The Hall of Fame recognizes participants and brands that have earned the highest number of points in international Hookah Battle tournaments. Points are awarded for participation and victories, so only the most active and talented members of the hookah community make it into the Hall of Fame.

To achieve this status, teams must score more than 40 points — a true recognition of their skill and one of the most coveted achievements for participants in our tournaments.
