UFC 289 officially set for June 10 in Vancouver

MMA

The UFC is heading back to Canada for the first time in nearly four years.

Vancouver will be the host to the UFC 289 pay-per-view event on June 10, the promotion announced Friday afternoon. No main event has been officially announced yet.

The UFC has not visited Canada since before the COVID-19 pandemic. The last time the MMA promotion went up north was Sept. 14, 2019, a UFC Fight Night card headlined by a bout between Justin Gaethje and Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone in Vancouver.

UFC 289 will be the first pay-per-view event in Canada since UFC 240 on July 27, 2019. That card was headlined by a featherweight title fight between Max Holloway and Frankie Edgar. Vancouver has not hosted a pay-per-view event since UFC 174 on June 14, 2014.
