The UFC is set to return to the United Kingdom in March, with next year’s London, England date set for March 22, 2025.
Promotion officials announced the news in a press release issued on Tuesday. London’s O2 Arena has become a regular stop for the company ever since the waning of the coronavirus pandemic, with the first show back in March of 2022 regarded as one of the greatest Fight Night events of all time.
Tuesday’s announcement did not have any fights attached to it, but you can bet the likes of Paddy Pimblett, Leon Edwards, and other top British stars will be interested in joining the festivities. England’s Tom Aspinall currently holds the UFC’s interim heavyweight title, though his availability may depend on what happens between Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic this coming weekend at UFC 309.
Tickets for this year’s UFC London card are set to go on sale on January 24, 2025. The event will be the 30th UFC show held in England, and the fifth in London since 2022, though the city was skipped this year in favor of hosting UFC 304 in Manchester.
Overall the UFC has made 15 visits to London to date, making it the promotion’s most frequent stop in both England and the U.K.
