UFC 312 officially announced for Syndey

The 2025 UFC schedule has its first publicly official stop.

There is now one official date and location on the UFC schedule for 2025.

UFC 312 is official for Qudos Bank Arena on Feb. 8 (Feb. 9 local) in Sydney, the promotion announced Wednesday. No fight revelations coincided with the announcement.

The event marks the second of three pay-per-views as part of a deal between the promotion and New South Wales Government in May 2023 to bring three UFC pay-per-view events to Sydney between 2023 and 2027.

The first event of that deal was UFC 293 in September 2023. That event was headlined by Sean Strickland’s title fight upset over then-champion Israel Adesanya. The card was the first in Sydney since 2017.

No other events have been revealed for the UFC’s 2025 schedule, though fighters have referenced a potential Jan. 18 pay-per-view in the Los Angeles area. Additionally, a Jan. 11 event has been rumored for the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.
