MANY OF THOSE hoping to attend next month’s UFC event in the O2 Arena Dublin next month were left disappointed this morning.

After various pre-sales for UFC ‘Fight Club’ members, O2 priority members and those who subscribe to the UFC newsletter over the past three days, the remaining tickets went on general sale on Ticketmaster’s website at 10am this morning.

Speaking earlier this week, UFC Brand, Comms and Event Director David Allen had said he was expecting the event to sell-out in record time and within in a couple of minutes, the last few had been snapped up.

All that remain are a number of VIP packages, which range from €585 to €1250 per person.

Hey Folks, @ufc @UFC_Ireland General tickets for Dublin Fight Night are now sold out. VIP Packages are still available.
