Dana White: Las Vegas Sphere Will Host Noche UFC 2024
UFC CEO Dana White has been passionate about hosting a UFC event at the Las Vegas Sphere. In the UFC 295 post-fight press conference, he announced the UFC will host its 2024 Mexican Independence Day event at the venue.
“Mexican Independence Day we are booked for the Sphere and we are already working on the creative for the show,” White said.
“It is going to be a massive challenge and I love every minute of it,” White said. “I can’t wait to dive into this thing. As I get more of the pieces of the puzzle put together, I will let you guys know as it comes along. I am super excited about this. I love challenges. Everybody keeps saying, ‘I don’t understand how you are going to put the octagon in there. I don’t understand how you are going to do this. I don’t understand how you are going to do that.’ Remember that I said this to you tonight: I am going to put on the greatest live combat sports show anybody has ever seen.”
The Las Vegas Sphere has gained traction as one of the most unique venues in the world. The Las Vegas Sphere features a 160,000-square-foot LED screen that provides endless possibilities for a live event.
The UFC event at the Las Vegas Sphere has massive potential. The fact that the UFC is bringing its Mexican Independence Day event ensures the atmosphere will be elite. It also gives the UFC 10 months to prepare for the September event.
White has had two goals for the Las Vegas Sphere: To be the first combat sports event in the area and to produce the best combat sports live event of all time. Unless another promoter undercuts the UFC, White will accomplish his first goal. If he can accomplish the second, the event will be a home run.
