UFC 300 Date, Time and Location Announced

The Ultimate Fighting Championship’s upcoming milestone now has an official time and place.

During the post-fight press conference for UFC 296 last weekend, UFC CEO Dana White announced that UFC 300 will take place on April 13, 2024, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. As is customary for numbered UFC events, the prelims will be broadcast on ESPN and ESPN+, with the main card to follow on pay-per-view through ESPN+. The early prelims are set to start at 6 p.m. ET, the undercard at 8 p.m. and the main card at 10 p.m.

While no bouts have yet been added to the card, speculation and rumor have attached many of the promotion’s biggest names to the event. White promised to awe fans starting with the first preliminary matchup of the night.

“Well, think about tonight and the buzz and the energy about tonight’s card, and think about the stuff I’m telling you guys about [UFC 299 in] Miami. So, we’ve got to beat this, Miami and a bunch of other great cards that are going to happen this year. I don’t remember who I was talking to, but the way I see UFC 300 is when it comes, people are going to be going, ‘Holy S--t! That’s the first prelim of the night?’ That’s what UFC 300 is going to be.”

Conor McGregor, arguably the biggest star to have ever graced the sport, is also targeting a return to action at UFC 300 from almost a three-year hiatus. Although McGregor has teased outings against a plethora of opponents during his absence from competition, his manager Audie Attar recently revealed that Michael Chandler remains the most likely after their stint as rival “The Ultimate Fighter” coaches earlier this year.
