UFC on Paramount+: 2026 Fight Schedule and Viewing Guide

Paramount+ has some exciting news for fans of mixed martial arts! Starting on Saturday, January 24, 2026, the streaming service will be the exclusive home for Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) events in both the United States and Latin America. This means that instead of having to purchase each bout on pay-per-view, UFC enthusiasts can now simply subscribe to Paramount+ to catch all the action.

This move comes after TKO Group Holdings, the parent company of UFC, sealed a massive $7.7 billion deal with Paramount, a Skydance corporation, back in August. This deal, set to last until 2033, aims to make UFC events more accessible and discoverable for sports fans, as well as drive subscriber growth for Paramount+.

So, how can you watch UFC events now? Well, starting from January 24, subscribers to Paramount+ can enjoy all 13 marquee numbered events and all 30 Fight Night events scheduled for 2026 without any additional charge on top of their subscriptions. Select marquee fights will also be simulcast on CBS under this new agreement.

Paramount+ offers two subscription plans: an Essential plan with ads and a Premium plan without ads. The Essential plan will cost $9 per month or $90 per year starting from January 15, while the Premium plan will be priced at $14 per month or $140 per year. These prices may be slightly higher than last year, but they still offer great value for UFC fans compared to the previous pay-per-view model with ESPN.

Curious about the upcoming UFC events? UFC 324, set to take place on Saturday, January 24, will kick off the Paramount+ era with two marquee showdowns. The event will feature UFC lightweight champion Justin Gaethje facing Paddy “The Baddy” Pimblett in an interim lightweight title fight, as well as a clash between UFC women’s bantamweight champion Kayla Harrison and UFC Hall of Famer Amanda Nunes.

As of December 18, the UFC 2026 schedule on Paramount+ includes several exciting events like UFC 325, UFC Fight Night matches, and UFC 326. Keep in mind that fight cards, dates, and times are subject to change, so stay tuned for updates!

If you’re a UFC fan looking to catch all the action without the hassle of pay-per-view, Paramount+ is the place to be starting from January 24, 2026. Don’t miss out on the thrilling matchups and epic showdowns coming your way!
