Where to watch a UFC fight depends first on your country, then on whether you want the early prelims, prelims, or main card. In the United States in 2026, Paramount+ is the home for all numbered events and Fight Nights, with select numbered events also airing on CBS. Elsewhere, rights differ: for example, Australian numbered-event main cards are on Kayo Sports, while Paramount+ carries Fight Nights and numbered-event prelims. UFC Fight Pass is useful for its archive and selected live content, but it is not a universal way to stream every live main card.

How to find the legal live stream for your event

  1. Identify your country. UFC says availability varies by country because of local broadcast restrictions. Start with the UFC event listing and the official local broadcaster or streaming service; rights in one country do not establish rights in another.
  2. Check which part of the card you want. Early prelims, prelims, and the main card may be carried by different services. Confirm the segment on the event listing before subscribing or purchasing access.
  3. Confirm the live-versus-replay option and purchase model. Check whether that event is included in a subscription or sold separately in your territory, and whether the service lists an on-demand version if you cannot watch live.
  4. Use a device you already own if it is supported. UFC lists browsers, phones, tablets, streaming devices, consoles, smart TVs, and set-top boxes, including Amazon Fire TV, for Fight Pass. Check the service’s current compatibility information for your device.

Where to watch in the United States

Under a seven-year US media-rights agreement announced by Paramount and TKO on August 11, 2025, Paramount+ became the exclusive US distributor for UFC numbered events and Fight Nights starting in 2026. The announcement says select marquee numbered events are also simulcast on CBS, and that the premium events are available to Paramount+ subscribers without an additional pay-per-view event purchase. It described an annual slate of 13 marquee numbered events and 30 Fight Nights; those figures refer to the announced US agreement, not every UFC event in every market or year. Read the Paramount and TKO announcement.

For a specific card, check its current Paramount+ or UFC event listing for the schedule, included programming, and any CBS simulcast. Older US guides describing ESPN+ pay-per-view purchases reflect an earlier arrangement, not the announced 2026 US distribution model.

Where to watch in Brazil and Australia

Brazil

UFC Brazil says live UFC events moved exclusively to Paramount+ in Brazil on January 1, 2026, and UFC Fight Pass was discontinued there on December 31, 2025. Advice that recommends Fight Pass for Brazilian live events is out of date. Confirm the event’s listing with the local service. See UFC Brazil’s announcement.

Australia

Paramount+ support says viewers in Australia can stream Fight Nights and numbered-event preliminary fights on Paramount+, while numbered-event main events are available on Kayo Sports. If you want a numbered event, identify whether you need the prelims or main card before choosing a service. Check Paramount+’s regional UFC availability information.

What UFC Fight Pass does—and does not—provide

Fight Pass offers an archive and selected live content, but UFC’s FAQ does not establish it as a universal live main-card service. The FAQ describes early prelims and other live events, while noting that pay-per-view events may be separate purchases depending on region. Local rights restrictions can affect what appears in the service, so verify the event listing where you watch. See UFC Fight Pass’s FAQ.

How to watch a replay

Replay timing depends on your territory and the service. UFC says pay-per-view events are generally added to the Fight Pass library about one month after airing, subject to regional variation. Its FAQ gives a distinct UK and Ireland rule: main cards become available on demand two days after the event. Neither timing should be assumed for other countries.

For Paramount+ and other local broadcasters, the available official information does not establish one dependable replay window that applies everywhere. After the live broadcast, open the service’s event page or on-demand catalog and check whether that specific card is available and included in your access.

Quick checks before choosing a service

  • Territory: Is the service licensed where you will be watching?
  • Card segment: Does it carry the early prelims, prelims, or main card you want?
  • Live or replay: Is the event available live, on demand later, or both?
  • Access model: Is the event included with a subscription or separately sold in your region?
  • Device: Does your current phone, television, browser, or streaming device support the service?

For countries other than the United States, Brazil, and Australia, the official information cited here does not provide a complete current worldwide rights and replay list. Use the exact event listing and official local broadcaster rather than inferring that another country’s arrangement applies.
