The UFC’s Canadian broadcast rights live on TSN, the Canadian sports network owned by Bell Media. TSN holds the rights direct from the UFC and has carried the promotion in Canada since 2011, with the present cycle running through 2027.
The 2025-26 Canadian broadcaster map
TSN is the primary Canadian home of the UFC. The network carries every Fight Night main card on linear TSN and streams the prelims on TSN+. PPV main cards run on TSN PPV as a one-time purchase per event, separate from the TSN cable or TSN+ streaming subscription.
TSN+ at $19.99 per month carries the full Fight Night calendar, the early prelims, and a meaningful slate of UFC archive content. TSN+ is the closest Canadian equivalent to the US ESPN+ for UFC purposes.
UFC Fight Pass at $9.99 USD per month carries the same international Fight Night calendar, the UFC Apex cards without TSN+ overlap, and the full historical library. Fight Pass is sold globally and is identical in content for Canadian and US subscribers.
How PPV pricing works in Canada
TSN PPV cards in Canada are priced at roughly CAD $79.99 per event for the main card. The exact pricing varies by event but holds rough parity with the US ESPN+ PPV at $79.99 USD. There is no streaming-subscription bundle equivalent to the US ESPN+ deal for PPV access; Canadian viewers must purchase each PPV individually through their cable or satellite provider, or through TSN’s direct PPV portal.
A practical Saturday-night plan
A standard UFC PPV Saturday in Canada:
- 18:00 ET: early prelims on UFC Fight Pass and TSN+
- 20:00 ET: televised prelims on TSN and TSN+
- 22:00 ET: PPV main card on TSN PPV (one-time purchase required)
Fight Night cards run on TSN+ end-to-end with no PPV charge.
Cross-border viewing notes
Canadian viewers cannot legally access ESPN+ for UFC content; ESPN+ blocks Canadian IPs from UFC content per the territorial rights deal. Reciprocally, US viewers cannot access TSN+ for UFC content; TSN+ blocks US IPs.
The two services hold separate territorial rights from the UFC. There is no overlap and no shared subscription option.
