UFC 293, headlined by Adesanya vs. Strickland in September 2023, saw a sell-out crowd of 18,168 and set records as the highest-grossing event in any Australian indoor arena. It attracted a large international audience, with 63% of ticket buyers coming from outside NSW, contributing $57.1 million in economic impact.<\/p>\n

Since hosting its first UFC event in 2010, Sydney has become a key destination for the sport, with Australian fighters like Robert Whittaker and Alex Volkanovski reaching champion status.
