The UFC is heading back to France for what promises to be another unforgettable evening of mixed martial arts action.
UFC announced that it will return to Paris on Saturday, September 5, with a blockbuster Fight Night event set to take place at the iconic Accor Arena. Following a string of sold-out shows and memorable performances in the French capital, UFC Paris is expected to once again deliver one of the most electric atmospheres on the promotion’s global calendar.
Since the legalization of MMA in France, the country has quickly become one of the sport’s fastest-growing markets, with passionate fans consistently packing arenas and creating a unique environment for fighters and viewers alike.
With demand anticipated to be exceptionally high, fans are encouraged to register their interest through UFC.com/Paris to receive advance ticket information and secure their seats before the general public.
For those looking to elevate their fight-week experience, UFC is also offering exclusive VIP packages through UFCVIP.com. These premium experiences include preferred seating, access to a private all-inclusive hospitality lounge featuring food and beverages, opportunities to meet UFC athletes and take photos, and even the chance to step inside the famous Octagon following the event.
The return to Paris comes during a pivotal period for French MMA, with two of the nation’s biggest stars preparing for career-defining bouts this summer.
Former interim heavyweight champion Ciryl Gane is set to challenge Alex Pereira for the interim UFC heavyweight championship at UFC Freedom 250 presented by Crypto.com and RAM Trucks. Widely regarded as one of the most skilled and technically refined heavyweights in UFC history, Gane will look to add another championship achievement to his impressive résumé.
Meanwhile, fan-favorite lightweight Benoit Saint Denis continues his climb toward title contention when he faces Paddy Pimblett at UFC 329 on July 11. The former French special forces soldier, currently ranked No. 5 in the division, hopes to score a statement victory against the popular Liverpool native and further cement his place among the lightweight elite.
Additional fight announcements for UFC Paris are expected in the coming months as the promotion finalizes what is expected to be a stacked card for its return to France.
