The UFC will return to Abu Dhabi on October 24, with UFC 333 set to take place at Etihad Arena on Yas Island.
The event will headline this year's Abu Dhabi Showdown Week, which will feature a programme of mixed martial arts events and fan experiences across the emirate.
Abu Dhabi has become one of the UFC's regular international destinations, hosting more than 20 events since 2010 under its partnership with the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi.
The announcement comes as the emirate prepares to host UFC Fight Night: Ankalaev vs Guskov later this month, continuing a schedule that sees the promotion stage two events in Abu Dhabi each year.
