Paramount and UFC to Expand Partnership to Canada from 2027

Paramount and UFC have come together once again to expand their partnership, this time to Canada starting in 2027. If you’re a fan of UFC Numbered Events, also known as Pay-Per-Views, you’ll be pleased to know that Paramount+ will be the exclusive home of these main card fights in Canada for the next six years.

These Numbered Events are where you’ll find those epic championship bouts and witness UFC’s biggest stars in action. With this new partnership, Paramount is ensuring that UFC fans across Canada can catch all 13 marquee UFC Numbered Event main cards live, and the best part? It’s included in your Paramount+ subscription at no extra cost.

Dana White, the President and CEO of UFC, expressed his excitement about this new development, saying, “Beginning in 2027, Paramount+ subscribers in Canada will get every UFC Numbered Event main card live, at no additional cost.” This partnership solidifies Paramount+ as the go-to destination for UFC enthusiasts in North America, Latin America, and Australia.

“UFC is one of the most dynamic live sports properties in the world and we are thrilled to bring Paramount+ subscribers in Canada into the Octagon in 2027 for no additional cost,” shared Rodrigo Mazón, Paramount+’s Head of Direct-To-Consumer in Latin America and Canada. This expansion into Canada reflects Paramount+’s commitment to delivering premium live sports and entertaining content to its audience.

While the exact details of the first UFC events to be streamed live on Paramount+ in Canada will be shared later this year, it’s clear that this partnership is set to bring some thrilling moments to Canadian UFC fans. With the success of UFC on Paramount+ in the U.S. and Latin America, where it became the service’s biggest exclusive live event, this expansion to Canada is sure to be a hit.

Since UFC debuted in Canada with UFC 83 in 2008, they have hosted 37 premier sporting events across 11 cities. Canadian fight cards have featured legendary athletes like Georges St-Pierre, Jon Jones, Jose Aldo, Valentina Shevchenko, and Max Holloway.

So, if you’re a UFC fan in Canada, get ready for some heart-pounding action coming your way on Paramount+ starting in 2027!
