UFC Main Cards to Air on Paramount+ Starting in 2027
UFC will move its numbered-event main cards to Paramount+ beginning in 2027 under a new six-year agreement. The deal ends pay-per-view broadcasts in Canada. Remaining portions of the cards are expected to stay on Sportsnet until that contract expires.
indianexpress.comUFC will shift its numbered-event main cards to live broadcasts on Paramount+ beginning in 2027 under a six-year agreement. The arrangement removes pay-per-view distribution for Canadian viewers. The announcement did not address the remainder of each card.
The six-year term is intended to bring the Canadian rights into closer alignment with the existing U.S. contract, which expires in six-and-a-half years. The approach mirrors the model used by WWE after it synchronized its media rights and moved programming to Netflix.
