UFC Apex Hotels & Accommodation

As the gambling capital of the USA, Las Vegas is notorious for its high-profile luxury hotels and casinos, many of which are considered highly exclusive. However, most of these including Caesars Palace, Bellagio, and Palms Casino Resort, are in prime locations on the Vegas Strip, and there’s plenty of more affordable options if you’re willing to look elsewhere.

📍 Where To Stay

From shopping to gambling and entertainment, Downtown has just as much to offer as The Strip, yet it is slightly more affordable. While The Strip is the most famous gambling street in Sin City, the casinos in Downtown's Fremont Street are often more budget-inclusive.

Located halfway between The Strip and Downtown, North Strip’s hotels are often more affordable. While the location is convenient to explore both of Vegas’ biggest tourist centres, it is quieter and not as close to restaurants and attractions.

The Arts District swaps the bright lights and big characters of Downtown Vegas and The Strip for a down-to-earth urban atmosphere. From the Arts Factory to the Art Square, expect to find cool shops, cafes, galleries, installations, and performances.

The Summerlin district, which is just 15 minutes from Downtown Vegas and The Strip, offers families a much-needed respite from the hustle and bustle of the city itself. As well as having its own shopping and dining centre, Summerlin benefits from being close to nature spots like Sloan Canyon.

With a free shuttle operating from Downtown to the bottom of The Strip, it’s easy to explore Sin City. Those wishing to see what else Las Vegas and Nevada have to offer would benefit from a car.

About UFC Apex

UFC Apex is a live events venue and production centre in Las Vegas, Nevada. The arena is located across the street from the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) headquarters, and it is owned and operated by the UFC.

History

The venue was opened in June 2019 as a centre for the UFC's studio shows, productions, and live events. It also hosts events for the WWE, which is also owned by the same parent company as the UFC, and the Power Slap league, which is owned by UFC president Dana White.

It began hosting its first UFC events in 2020, held behind closed doors due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The arena uses a 25-foot diameter Octagon for fights, which is smaller than the standard 30-foot version; the more contained area is believed to create faster-paced fights with a higher volume of strikes and finishes.

After the pandemic, spectator facilities were added with seating to accommodate up to 1,000 people – making for an exclusive, intimate viewing experience – as well as concessions, ticket sales, and a souvenir shop.

In 2022, UFC Apex was chosen as a host venue for the Street League Skateboarding tour, marking one of the venue's first ever non-UFC events.
