Last verified: August 2, 2026
Event: Saturday, September 12, 2026

Noche UFC returns on Saturday, September 12, 2026, with a Mexican Independence Day celebration at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. UFC has announced six matchups featuring Alexa Grasso, Brandon Moreno, Manon Fiorot, Curtis Blaydes, Kelvin Gastelum, and other Mexican and Latin American talent.

The entire event will stream live on Paramount+ in the United States and Latin America. The prelims begin at 1:00 p.m. Eastern, followed by the main card at 5:00 p.m. Eastern. Paramount+ says every 2026 UFC Fight Night is included live and on demand with either subscription plan, without a separate pay-per-view charge.

UFC's event page still displays TBD vs TBD as the headliner. The confirmed bouts below should not be treated as a final bout order or an official main event until UFC updates the event page.

Noche UFC 2026 start times

Arizona does not observe daylight saving time. On September 12, Glendale uses Mountain Standard Time, which matches Pacific Daylight Time. The verified broadcast windows convert as follows:

UFC published the 1:00 p.m. ET prelim and 5:00 p.m. ET main-card windows in its official Noche UFC announcement. The official event page independently lists the 5:00 p.m. ET main-card time, venue, and date.

These times were checked on August 2. Recheck the UFC event page within 48 hours of the prelims because late bout changes can also affect the running order.

Viewing options at a glance

The US prices apply to direct Paramount+ subscriptions and should not be copied to Latin American markets. Regional prices, taxes, plan names, app-store billing, and partner bundles can differ.

How to watch Noche UFC in the US

Paramount+ is the exclusive US home of UFC in 2026. Every UFC Fight Night, including Noche UFC, streams live and on demand with either the Essential or Premium plan.

There is no separate Noche UFC pay-per-view purchase. Paramount+'s current UFC pricing guide lists:

• Essential: $8.99 per month or $89.99 per year, plus applicable taxes
• Premium: $13.99 per month or $139.99 per year, plus applicable taxes

Both plans include UFC Fight Nights. Premium adds other Paramount+ features, including eligible local CBS access and SHOWTIME programming; it does not provide a different Noche UFC fight card. Live television and promotional material can still contain advertising.

See Paramount+'s official UFC cost guide for the current US figures.

Do you need cable or ESPN+?

No cable login is required for the Paramount+ stream. UFC events moved away from ESPN and the US pay-per-view model in 2026. A normal Paramount+ subscription is the official streaming route.

Paramount's rights announcement describes Paramount+ as the exclusive US home of all numbered events and Fight Nights. Select events can also appear on CBS, but no Noche UFC CBS simulcast was announced as of August 2. Do not assume that local CBS will carry the event merely because Premium includes an eligible CBS feed.

Which devices support the stream?

Paramount+ lists smart televisions, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, Android devices, Xbox, PlayStation, and web browsers among its UFC Fight Night options.

Use the official Paramount+ app for the device rather than an unofficial APK or third-party restream. Device generation, operating-system version, account region, and app-store availability can affect support.

Are Noche UFC replays available?

Yes. Paramount+ says every 2026 UFC Fight Night streams live and on demand. Its Fight Night library includes recent events and older Fight Night programming.

The exact time when the complete replay becomes selectable can vary after the live feed. If you plan to watch later, avoid UFC notifications and social media until the replay appears.

Read Paramount+'s official Fight Night viewing guide for live, on-demand, device, and plan details.

How to watch Noche UFC in Latin America

Paramount says Paramount+ carries every UFC numbered event and Fight Night in the United States and Latin America during the 2026 season. Noche UFC's official announcement also says all bouts will stream live on Paramount+.

Paramount+ availability and price are market-specific. Before subscribing:

1. Open the official Paramount+ website or app for the country where you will watch.
2. Confirm that Noche UFC appears in the local UFC schedule or event listing.
3. Check the displayed local currency, taxes, renewal date, and cancellation terms.
4. Confirm whether the subscription is billed directly, through an app store, or through a television or mobile partner.
5. Test ordinary on-demand content on the intended device before fight day.

Paramount's current corporate coverage statement says the service carries every UFC Fight Night in the US and Latin America. It also reports multilingual live and video-on-demand infrastructure, but language feeds for this specific event should be confirmed when the event tile appears.

See Paramount's current UFC distribution statement and use the local Paramount+ checkout for the actual regional price.

Confirmed Noche UFC matchups

UFC announced the following bouts on July 20. Rankings and records below reflect the announcement and can change before fight week.

This is a confirmed partial card, not a final running order. UFC has not designated a headliner on the event page, and the page still displays TBD vs TBD. Do not label Grasso vs Fiorot, Moreno vs Morales, or another bout as the main event until UFC does so.

Additional bouts, withdrawals, replacements, weight changes, and bout-order changes remain possible. The guide will be refreshed within 48 hours of the prelims.

Is there a free Noche UFC stream?

No complete licensed free live stream was confirmed for Noche UFC as of August 2.

A Paramount+ subscription includes the event without an extra pay-per-view charge, but that does not make the service free. A promotional trial or partner offer may be account-specific, temporary, and subject to automatic renewal. Confirm the checkout terms rather than relying on an expired promotion or an offer described by another website.

Paramount sometimes simulcasts selected UFC content on CBS. Neither UFC nor Paramount had announced a CBS simulcast for Noche UFC at verification time. If that changes, Start2Watch will update the guide and identify the exact fights and markets included.

Start2Watch does not link to unauthorized streams, copied credentials, restreaming sites, or unofficial social-media broadcasts.

Set up the stream before fight day

1. Confirm that the Noche UFC event tile appears in the official Paramount+ service for your country.
2. Check the final UFC event page for the headliner, complete card, bout order, and unchanged start times.
3. Install or update the official Paramount+ app.
4. Sign in on the exact television, streaming device, or browser you will use.
5. Play regular live or on-demand content to verify video and audio.
6. Check available storage, power, HDMI input, and network stability on streaming devices.
7. Open the live event 10 to 15 minutes before the prelims.

Use Start2Watch's internet speed guide for HD and 4K streaming to estimate household bandwidth. If the live feed pauses or repeatedly reduces quality, follow the stream buffering diagnostic. Fire TV users who cannot reach the internet can use the Firestick Wi-Fi connected but no internet guide.

Watching while travelling

Paramount+ catalogs and live rights depend on location. A subscription purchased in one country does not guarantee that the same live event, plan, language feed, or device support will be available in another country.

Use the service licensed for the country where you are physically watching. Check the local Paramount+ event listing and UFC's official broadcast information instead of attempting to bypass territorial controls.
