The wait is finally over for UFC fans! Today, the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi) has launched exclusive hotel and ticket packages guaranteeing fans access to the much-anticipated UFC® 308, on Saturday, October 26 at Etihad Arena.
The UAE capital hosted UFC events since 2010, advocating the growth of MMA in the UAE and across the Middle East. The star-studded events are known to sell-out fast in Abu Dhabi – tickets for last year’s UFC® 294: MAKHACHEV vs VOLKANOVSKI 2 sold out in a few hours. The exclusive UFC® 308 hotel packages include tickets to one of the country’s most-anticipated sports events of the year.

UFC® 308 will feature at least one championship title bout,as part of the long-standing tradition of title fights in the market, where the popularity of MMA has been fostered.
