Based on the success of its first two Fan Expos in the United States and high hopes for its third next month, the UFC on Friday made official a Fan Expo in London for October.
The first two UFC Fan Expos were in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay Events Center. The first was held in conjunction with UFC 100 in July 2009. A second was held leading up to UFC 114 in May. And prior to UFC 118 in Boston next month, the UFC will hold its first fan event on the East Coast.
The London UFC Fan Expo will be Oct. 15-16 in advance of UFC 120: Bisping vs. Akiyama and will take place at Earls Court Exhibition Centre.
