Sean O’Malley vs Merab Dvalishvili headlines this stellar UFC 306 pay-per-view card for the UFC Bantamweight Title. The fight goes down in the early hours of Sunday morning for UK MMA fans – but just how much are UFC 306 tickets to buy exactly?
How Much Do UFC 306 Tickets Cost?
The Sphere in Paradise, Las Vegas, Nevada, takes centre stage as the UFC are in town for their latest numbered card. UFC 306 sees two UFC Title fights – with the bantamweight belt on the line in the main event for O’Malley vs Dvalishvili as well as the Women’s Flyweight Title up for grabs in the Alexa Grasso vs Valentina Shevchenko bout.
The 135-pound bout between Sean O’Malley and Merab Dvalishvili course headlines UFC 306, with plenty of stellar fights too on the undercard including some big names and potential stars of the future.
The Sphere has a rough capacity of 18,600, with ticket prices ranging from low to high. Tickets for UFC 306 in fact range from as little as $531, right up to as much as $17,507.
The cheapest $531 tickets for UFC 306 are of course the furthest away from the octagon, up at the top of the arena, the farthest away from the action. The most expensive tickets are the inner octagon-side ones, which are priced at a maximum of $17,507.
These ticket prices are rather expensive, which is one huge criticism of the UFC. Their ticket prices are extortionate, even compared to the average price of PPV boxing tickets. The average price for UFC 306 tickets at the Sphere this weekend for UFC Noche equates to roughly $1,681.
There are of course various different sections in the arena, and the price of a UFC 306 ticket depends on where your seat is situated inside the Sphere. Even still, UFC 306 tickets are very much on the higher side.
How Does The UFC 306 Ticket Price Compare To Previous UFC PPV Events?
These ticket prices are pretty expensive by the UFC’s standards. However, you could argue that the UFC are such a big brand in MMA now that they can charge more or less whatever price they want. Not to mention the fact that this card is at the Sphere – one of the most state of the art venues in the entire United States.
UFC 305 was the last UFC pay-per-view, headlined by Dricus du Plessis vs Israel Adesanya. On that occasions, tickets were deemed quite expensive for the middleweight bout in the RAC Arena in Perth, Australia. The cheapest tickets were around $218 dollars, right up to an extortionate price of $5,112.
Ticket prices for standard UFC Fight Night cards range from around $120 dollars, up to $2,500. This is of course far less than UFC pay-per-view ticket prices, but is still quite expensive if you are a fan wanting to watch UFC as a hobby. UFC President Dana White is certainly making a fortune through ticket sales.
Prior to the UFC 306 main event, the best UFC betting sites in the UK simply cannot split the two fighters. As the champion, some of the best UK betting apps may give the slight advantage to ‘Suga’ going into the UFC 306 main event.
