UFC and WWE Strengthen Their Presence in Las Vegas with Strategic Agreements
Las Vegas solidifies its position as an epicenter of sports entertainment with the renewal of agreements that ensure the constant presence of UFC and WWE at the T-Mobile Arena. The UFC has extended its contract to hold at least four annual events in the prestigious venue, while WWE commits to holding two events per year. This strategic alliance reinforces Las Vegas’s position as a key destination for fans of combat sports and sports entertainment. The UFC, which has been a main tenant at the T-Mobile Arena since 2017, will continue its successful collaboration with the property, owned by MGM Resorts and AEG. Furthermore, WWE, which shares the same parent company as UFC, TKO Group Holdings, has formalized its commitment with two annual events. WWE has hosted several major events in Las Vegas in recent years, including WrestleMania, and this agreement formalizes and expands that growing partnership.Since 2017, the UFC has presented 20 sold-out events at the T-Mobile Arena. WWE hosted WrestleMania in April at Allegiant Stadium, but held several secondary events at the T-Mobile Arena. WrestleMania is scheduled to return to Allegiant Stadium in April 2026, and the T-Mobile Arena will host Smackdown and Raw in support of the event.T-Mobile Arena has hosted some of the most iconic UFC fights in the last decade. Five of our top ten highest-grossing events have been held in that arena, and I look forward to breaking more records together.
