Galaxy Macau<\/strong> is spearheading the evolution of UFC<\/strong> into the Asian market through a four-year collaboration with the promotion until 2029<\/strong>. As a result of the collaboration, the venue will host three UFC FIGHT NIGHT<\/strong> events in Macau at the state-of-the-art Galaxy Arena.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kevin Chang<\/strong>, UFC Senior Vice President and Head of Asia, commented: \u201cIn 2026, Macau will be the launchpad to UFC in Asia. Building on our wildly successful 2024 event, this long-term partnership with Galaxy Macau solidifies our commitment to this region and its passionate fans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTogether, we will deliver the pinnacle of mixed martial arts and cultivate the next generation of talent, right here from the heart of Macau.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Macau is the entertainment hub of China\u2019s dynamic Greater Bay Area and draws tourists from across Asia for its vibrant culture and many attractions. The city\u2019s strategic location and infrastructure position it as an ideal location for a wide array of upscale international sporting events. Every UFC FIGHT NIGHT event under the agreement will be held at Galaxy Arena, Macau\u2019s largest indoor arena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kevin Kelley<\/strong>, Chief Operating Officer \u2013 Macau of Galaxy Entertainment Group<\/strong>, added: \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to partner with UFC, the world\u2019s largest MMA promotion entity, to bring world-class fight nights to Galaxy Arena. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis partnership reflects our ongoing support for the Macao SAR Government\u2019s vision to integrate tourism and sports. MMA fans in Macau will now have the chance to witness top-tier action right here at home, while visitors can enjoy the city\u2019s rich culture, cuisine, and entertainment alongside unforgettable fight experiences.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further underpinning the cultural importance of the deal, the UFC has placed its focus on complementing the growth of Asian prospects through ROAD TO UFC<\/strong>, a tournament that gives up-and-coming athletes a direct path to a UFC contract while building up their experience and fanbase in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dana White<\/strong>, UFC President and CEO concluded: \u201cI\u2019ve just returned from China and everything about it was incredible \u2013 the culture, the people and the athletes. This new partnership with Galaxy Macau couldn\u2019t come at a better time. It\u2019s great for fight fans in China and massive for the sport.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
