The UFC community has been buzzing about the UFC 300 since the ending days of 2023. Dana White’s announcement about the date and venue of the coveted UFC PPV, also had several fans excited about enjoying all the action with their own eyes. Most of them may already know that UFC 300 will take place at the noted T-Mobile Arena on the night of 13 April this year.
Hence, a lot of them may have also started working out the blueprint to be at that event. So, here we will try to facilitate the trip planning of those fans with some important pieces of information that might help them with their journey and stay for the UFC 300.
How can fans get to the scheduled venue of UFC 300, the T-Mobile Arena?
The T-Mobile Arena is located in one of the most famous cities in the US, Las Vegas.

But reaching the T-Mobile Arena from the incoming-outgoing hotspots of Vegas may prove to be a tougher task.
However, the fans landing at the Vegas airport may find it pretty easy to reach the T-Mobile Arena. It’s just 3.4 miles away and a taxi will easily get them there within 6-7 minutes, costing them $20-$25. Fans can also get there by a Westbound Tropicana after Spencer RT 201 bus. However, they’ll have to walk 800m to get to T-Mobile Arena after getting down at the Tropicana after the Vegas stop.
The T-Mobile Arena is also just 1.1 km away from the MGM Grand Monorail station, which makes it easy for fans to walk across the meager distance. But getting to the MGM Grand Monorail station will take 22 minutes from the previous stop, Sahara Las Vegas Monorail Station.
