Update: Coming in hot and looking for the quickest guide on where to watch a UFC live stream for UFC 324 tonight? There's still time, as the main card still has three massive fights left, including the must-see event of Gaethje vs. Pimblett. This is the most affordable big event the UFC has had in years now that it's found a new home on Paramount Plus (in the US) after leaving pricy PPV and ESPN behind.
The first UFC event of 2026 has arrived, and it's the beginning of a new era for the US broadcast rights. We've compiled everything you need to know about where to watch UFC, including live streaming options for Gaethje vs. Pimblett.
ESPN's tenure as the UFC's US broadcast rights holder has come to an end, and with it, so have the hefty pay-per-view (PPV) fees. Beginning in 2026, Paramount Plus now holds the US rights to UFC in a landmark seven-year deal. All subscribers, no matter what tier of service you have, will be able to live stream all UFC coverage, from major numbered events to smaller fight nights.
The Paramount Plus era of UFC kicks off with a massive fight card for UFC 324. The event, which will be held at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, features two can't-miss main fights. A Justin Gaethje vs. Paddy Pimblett lightweight interim title bout headlines the event, and a Sean O'Malley vs. Song Yadong bantamweight bout will serve as the co-main. It's a stacked line-up down the entire fight card, from the early prelims to the main events.
We've gathered everything you might need to know about tuning into UFC events around the world, from Fight Nights to title fights. Below, you can find all the details on live streaming UFC, no matter where you are.

Where to watch UFC in the US
All UFC events will be available through Paramount Plus in the US. UFC coverage is available through both tiers, Essential and Premium. Essential costs $9 a month and offers ad-supported on-demand streaming. Premium costs $14 a month and unlocks ad-free on-demand streaming, Showtime content, and 24/7 live streams of your local CBS station. You can learn more in our Paramount Plus streaming guide. Select events will also air on CBS.
How to watch UFC everywhere else
The US isn't the only country with access to UFC events. Many regions, including Canada and the UK, offer live streams through different services. In the UK, fans will need to pay a £19.99 TNT Sports Box Office PPV fee, which can be streamed through Discovery Plus, EE TV, Prime Video, Sky, and Virgin Media TV.
If you're outside the US or UK, check your local listings for more information, since there's a pretty good chance you'll still be able to watch UFC. But if you're traveling away from home and find that you can't access your usual subscriptions, it might be time to try out a VPN (virtual private network). VPNs are handy cybersecurity tools that let you temporarily change the virtual location of your electronic device. This way, you can keep up with all of your usual websites and apps from anywhere, just like you would back home.
Our go-to VPN recommendation is NordVPN, a user-friendly option with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Check out our NordVPN review for more information, and keep reading to learn how to use a VPN.
