The UFC's one-time-only U.S. city visits (so far), including Bangor – but also some real surprises

During the pandemic, we’ve had to get used to the UFC not making the rounds across the country and around the world the way it did before COVID-19 was a thing.

Once fights started back up in May 2020, the UFC has only been to three cities outside Las Vegas and Abu Dhabi. So we thought it would be a good time to take a look back at the cities the UFC has been to in the U.S. – but has yet to find a chance to go back to.

Below, we present the one-time-only UFC cities so far.

(Note: Some cities technically qualify for the list – like Albuquerque, N.M., which the UFC went to in 2014. But because the UFC went to Rio Rancho, N.M., a near suburb of Albuquerque, in 2020, we grouped the two together. So Rosemont, Ill., doesn’t make the cut because it’s a near suburb of Chicago, which the UFC has been to several times. Sure, that makes this list slightly arbitrary. But you’ll forgive us.)
