UFC Contender Series tickets will go on sale for $25 starting this week, marking the first time fans can attend the developmental show.

The promotion announced Monday that tickets for the tenth season of Dana White's Contender Series are available through AXS.com for the base price, though the final cost climbs to around $43 after taxes and fees, per MMA Mania. Purchases are capped at eight tickets per person. The events take place at the renovated Meta APEX in Las Vegas, which now seats roughly 1200 fans after recent upgrades.

What Contender Series Has Delivered Since 2017

Contender Series launched in July 2017 and has become the primary pipeline for UFC signings. The show has produced four UFC champions over its near-decade run, including current light heavyweight titleholder Carlos Ulberg. Tuesday's season opener features heavyweights Matt Adams and Fury FC champion Anthony Wint in the main event, with flyweight prospect Bilal Hasan facing Mridul Saikia on the undercard.

The ticket release comes as fans across combat sports voice concerns about rising event costs. The $25 entry point offers a rare chance to scout future contenders without the premium attached to numbered UFC cards. Season 10 kicks off Tuesday, August 11.
