The UFC is heading back down under early next year.
The organization announced Wednesday that UFC 312 will take place at Qudos Bank Arena on Feb. 9 in Sydney, Australia. Former UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski was on hand for the announcement, though no details about who will fight on the card were shared.
The pay-per-view event is the second of four events in partnership with the province of New South Wales.
Most recently, UFC 305 in August took place in Perth, Australia with Dricus du Plessis defeating Israel Adesanya by submission to defend his middleweight title.
UFC 293: Adesanya vs. Strickland in 2023 was the last event the UFC has hosted in Sydney. Since 2010, Australia has hosted 18 UFC events.
