The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will begin in 2027 in “The Big D”.
During UFC 333 broadcast Last weekend, the promotion announced that it would be returning to Dallas, Texas for Fight Night, which will take place on Saturday, January 16, 2027 at the American Airlines Center.
No fights have been announced for the event, but UFC Dallas will air live and exclusively on Paramount+ in the United States.
“When the dust settles…we’ll be landing in Texas,” the UFC wrote social media.
The Jan. 16 event will mark the UFC’s seventh trip to Dallas, with all seven cards taking place at the American Airlines Center.
Other memorable Dallas events include: Johnny Hendricks‘ free welterweight title win over Robbie Lawler UFC 171, Rafael dos Anjos‘ dominating championship win Anthony Pettis UFC 185 and Stipe Miocic‘s heavyweight title defense Junior dos Santos at UFC 211.
With no bouts currently added, Texas fight fans will have to wait a little longer to find out who will headline the UFC 2027 season opener. Fans can register for early access tickets at The official page of UFC Dallas.
