Toronto – UFC and Ontario Ministry of Sport announced today the Octagon will return to Toronto for UFC 336 at Scotiabank Arena on Saturday, January 30. Stay tuned for future bout announcements.
“I’m excited to partner with the Ministry of Sport and bring UFC back to Toronto,” UFC President and CEO Dana White. “I love Canada and Toronto has been home to some of the biggest moments in UFC history. It’s always incredible to put on an event there, and I am excited to get back next year.”
“Sport tourism is a major economic driver for Ontario, and we are thrilled to welcome some of the sport’s top athletes back to our province,” said Brian Saunderson, Ontario’s Minister of Sport. “By eliminating gate fees, reducing red tape and lowering costs for promoters, we’re making Ontario one of the most competitive jurisdictions in North America to host world-class combative sport events like UFC 336. These changes are helping attract more events to Ontario, bringing visitors and generating economic activity for communities across the province.”
Additionally, UFC 336 will be the first time the main card of a UFC numbered event will air on Paramount+ in Canada, in a move that takes the best fights off pay-per-view and provides them to subscribers at no additional cost.
