The Meta APEX, formerly known as UFC APEX, is a state-of-the-art sports, broadcast, and production facility located at 6650 El Camino Road in Las Vegas. The venue is approximately 10 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip and Harry Reid International Airport.
Best known as an intimate home for UFC Fight Nights, Dana White’s Contender Series, and other combat-sports productions, the facility places spectators remarkably close to the action. Its flexible stages, broadcast technology, locker rooms, training facilities, media spaces, and production equipment also allow it to accommodate television programs, private performances, corporate events, and other productions.
Meta APEX is primarily an event and production facility rather than a conventional attraction with regular public operating hours. Visitors generally need a valid event ticket, invitation, scheduled tour, or confirmed business appointment to enter.

Meta APEX is located on El Camino Road southwest of the Las Vegas Strip. The facility is approximately 10 minutes from both the resort corridor and Harry Reid International Airport under normal traffic conditions.
Its off-Strip location offers convenient access from Interstate 15, the Las Vegas Beltway, Tropicana Avenue, Russell Road, and surrounding neighborhoods. Actual travel times vary due to construction, weekend traffic, conventions, sporting events, and activity near Allegiant Stadium.
The facility is not inside a casino resort or traditional entertainment district. Visitors should confirm their transportation plan, entrance instructions, and scheduled arrival time before leaving.
Meta APEX is best known for hosting UFC Fight Night cards in an intimate setting. Compared with major arena events, the compact production environment allows spectators to experience the sounds and details of mixed martial arts from close range.
Depending on the scheduled event, visitors may see:
Not every production is open to the general public. Some events may be held without public ticket sales or may limit attendance to invited guests, credentialed media, production personnel, and approved attendees.
Fight cards, athletes, bout orders, start times, broadcast schedules, ticket availability, and admission rules are subject to change.
The approximately 130,000-square-foot facility contains three adaptable stages and several supporting production spaces.
Stage A is the principal event and production space. It measures approximately 12,425 square feet with a ceiling height of 26 feet. It can accommodate UFC events, other sporting competitions, television productions, performances, presentations, and private functions.
Audience capacity and seating arrangements depend on the production layout, Octagon or stage placement, cameras, lighting, barricades, fire-code requirements, and event plan.
Stage B is a moderately sized production space measuring approximately 2,435 square feet. Its flexible configuration can support smaller productions, studio programs, interviews, and related activities.
Stage C provides approximately 748 square feet of flexible production space and may be used for smaller sets, interviews, support operations, or specialized production requirements.
The Media Room covers approximately 2,449 square feet. It can accommodate press conferences, interviews, exhibits, meetings, media events, and face-to-face presentations.
The facility includes a warehouse measuring approximately 14,398 square feet. Production features include roll-up doors, loading areas, storage space, ground-level garage access, and room for production support services.
Meta APEX does not operate like a conventional attraction with regular admission tickets or daily public tours. Public access generally occurs through individually announced events.
Tickets for select UFC Fight Nights, Dana White’s Contender Series programs, boxing cards, and other productions may be offered through UFC-authorized sellers or verified resale marketplaces.
Ticket holders should confirm:
Fight cards and scheduled participants can change due to injuries, medical issues, travel problems, or other circumstances. A ticket generally grants admission to the overall event rather than guaranteeing the appearance of one particular athlete.
Meta APEX has on-site parking, including covered parking used by production crews and event personnel. The amount of parking available to ticket holders depends on the individual event.
Guests should carefully review their tickets and pre-event emails for parking assignments, entrance locations, rideshare procedures, credentials, and arrival instructions. Do not assume every facility parking area will be available for public use.
Rideshare and taxi service may be convenient because the facility is not located within a resort complex. Pickup and drop-off locations can be adjusted for security or production operations.
Visitors should allow additional time for traffic, parking, security screening, and ticket verification. Review the Las Vegas Parking Fees and Information Guide before attending.
Food and beverage availability depends on the scheduled event. Some public events may offer concessions or hosted hospitality, while private productions may arrange catering and bar service.
Guests should not assume that a full arena-style concession program will be offered. Check the specific event information before arriving, particularly when attending a production lasting several hours.
Outside food, beverages, bottles, coolers, and alcohol may be restricted. Guests with medically necessary food or dietary requirements should contact the venue or event organizer before attending.
Alcohol service, when offered, is restricted to eligible guests who can present valid government-issued photo identification.
Accessible accommodations may include designated parking, step-free entrances, accessible restrooms, wheelchair locations, companion seating, and assistance entering the facility.
Available accommodations and seating arrangements depend on the event configuration. Temporary stages, camera platforms, barricades, production equipment, and restricted areas can alter normal routes.
Guests who need wheelchair seating, companion seating, assisted-listening support, service-animal guidance, accessible parking, or another accommodation should contact the ticket provider or event organizer before purchasing whenever possible.
A general facility inquiry does not automatically reserve an accessible event ticket or companion seat.
Confirm that the event is open to spectators.
Many productions at Meta APEX are private, invitation-only, or closed to the public.
Check the complete event schedule.
Doors, preliminary bouts, main-card broadcasts, and featured fights may have different start times.
