Slew of UFC dates official, including likely International Fight Week card
The UFC had a handful of dates approved Wednesday, including one that appears will be International Fight Week.
A slew of UFC event permits were approved by Nevada for dates this summer – including one likely to be International Fight Week. At a monthly meeting Wednesday, the Nevada Athletic Commission approved the following dates for Meta APEX: April 25, May 16, June 6, and June 20. This brings the number of Meta APEX events up to seven in 2026.
Additionally, the NAC approved a July 11 event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Given the UFC is expected to be in Baku, Azerbaijan on June 27, it's likely the July 11 event will be UFC 329 and mark the return of International Fight Week – and possibly Conor McGregor , who continues to hype the event as a potential landing spot. The current lineups for the newly official Nevada event dates include: April 25: UFC Fight Night 274 Aljamain Sterling vs.
Youssef Zalal Norma Dumont vs. Joselyne Edwards Talita Alencar vs. Julia Polastri Eric McConico vs.
Rodolfo Vieira Jafel Filho vs. Lucas Rocha Raoni Barcelos vs. Montel Jackson Michelle Montague vs.
