TKO extends UFC partnership with T-Mobile Arena

The only routine venue that hosts UFC pay-per-view events in Las Vegas has at least four more years’ worth of such cards headed its way.

TKO Holdings Inc. announced Thursday the extension of its partnership with T-Mobile Arena. The agreement guarantees the venue will host four UFC pay-per-view events and two WWE events annually from 2026 through 2030.

“T-Mobile Arena has been home to some of the most iconic UFC fights of the last decade,” said UFC President and CEO Dana White in a press release. “Five of our top 10 biggest gates have happened in that arena, and I look forward to breaking more records together.”

According to the release, the venue has hosted 20 sold-out UFC events since its doors opened in 2016. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s been the second-most used event for UFC events next to the UFC Apex.

T-Mobile Arena is also home of the NHL’s Las Vegas Golden Knights.

The promotion’s next pay-per-view event UFC 320 on Oct. 4 will take place at T-Mobile Arena. It’s also expected to host UFC 322, targeted for Dec. 6.
