Where to watch UFC 329 in the US
In 2026, the UFC’s US home is Paramount+ — and importantly, there’s no more pay-per-view. Every numbered event, including UFC 329, is included with any Paramount+ subscription:
- Essential: $8.99/month (with ads)
- Premium: $13.99/month (no ads)
- A select portion of the card is also simulcast on CBS.
That’s great if Paramount+ is the only thing you watch — but if you want UFC and the rest of your sports and channels in one place, there’s a simpler option.
