UFC 324 streaming availability on Paramount Plus
UFC 324 will not be on Paramount Plus. The event aired on pay-per-view through ESPN+ in November 2023, and Paramount Plus does not carry UFC pay-per-view events. Paramount Plus shows some UFC content — replays of past fights, documentaries, and occasional fight cards — but live pay-per-view events go through ESPN+ only.
If you want to watch UFC 324 now, you would need ESPN+, which requires a separate subscription from Paramount Plus. ESPN+ costs around $11 per month for a standard subscription, or you can bundle it with Hulu and Disney+ for a higher price. The pay-per-view itself would have cost extra on top of the ESPN+ subscription when it first aired.
Some UFC events do appear on Paramount Plus as part of the regular schedule — usually preliminary fights or full cards that are not pay-per-view — but these are announced ahead of time and are free to Paramount Plus members. UFC 324 was not one of those events.
Key Takeaways
- UFC 324 was a pay-per-view event that aired on ESPN+ only, not on Paramount Plus.
- Paramount Plus carries some UFC content like replays and documentaries, but never carries live pay-per-view fights.
- To watch UFC 324 now, you would need to purchase it through ESPN+ if it is available as an on-demand replay.
- Future UFC events that appear on Paramount Plus are announced in advance and are included with your regular subscription at no extra cost.
What Paramount Plus actually shows for UFC
Paramount Plus has a deal with the UFC, but it covers specific content only. You can watch replays of past fights, full fight cards from events that were not pay-per-view, and original series about fighters and the sport. The platform also shows some preliminary fights from major events, though not always the main card.
The exact fights and events available change over time. Paramount Plus updates its UFC library regularly, so a fight that is not there today might be added later. You can search the platform directly to see what is currently available rather than relying on a list that may be outdated.
How to find UFC events on Paramount Plus
Open Paramount Plus and use the search bar to type "UFC" or browse the Sports section. The app will show you all available UFC content — fights, documentaries, and series. You can filter by date or fighter name if you are looking for something specific.
If you do not see a particular fight or event, it means it is not currently on the platform. This does not mean it will never be added, but Paramount Plus does not publish a schedule of future UFC content additions, so you would need to check back periodically or search for it again later.
Where to watch UFC pay-per-view events instead
ESPN+ is the only place to watch UFC pay-per-view events live or on replay. You subscribe to ESPN+ separately, and then pay an additional fee for each pay-per-view event you want to watch. Some events are included with certain ESPN+ subscription tiers, but most major UFC cards require the extra pay-per-view purchase.
You can also watch UFC events on traditional pay-per-view through cable or satellite providers if you have a TV subscription. The cost and availability depend on your provider. Some sports bars and restaurants show UFC events on their televisions, which is another way to watch without buying it yourself.
The difference between Paramount Plus and ESPN+ for UFC
Paramount Plus and ESPN+ are separate services owned by different companies. Paramount Plus focuses on movies, TV shows, and some sports content. ESPN+ is ESPN's streaming service and is the exclusive home for UFC pay-per-view events. The two services do not share content, so having one does not give you access to the other.
If you want to watch all UFC events, you would need both services — Paramount Plus for replays and non-pay-per-view content, and ESPN+ for live pay-per-view fights. Some people subscribe to both, but they are not bundled together, so you pay for each one separately.
Checking if UFC 324 is available as a replay
UFC 324 may be available to purchase or watch on ESPN+ as an on-demand replay, even though it is no longer a live event. Search ESPN+ directly to see if the full card or individual fights are available. The price for on-demand replays is usually lower than the original pay-per-view cost, though ESPN+ does not always make every event available this way.
If you have an ESPN+ subscription already, you can search their library without paying extra. If you do not have ESPN+, you would need to subscribe first, then check whether UFC 324 is available in their catalog before deciding whether to purchase it.
