The event will take place at the Gila River Arena in Glendale (Arizona). The main card starts at 10 p.m. ET. The event is aired by different broadcasters all over the world. In the U.S. you’ll need an ESPN subscription and in the U.K. you can watch the event through BT Sports 1. If you don’t have a subscription with one of these broadcasters, it can be quite expensive to watch the fight. Luckily, there is a way around this through a Dutch streaming service that broadcasts the event for free.
Watching the UFC 263 for Free
In the Netherlands you don’t need a subscription to watch the UFC. Dutch broadcaster Talpa has made the fights available online on the Kijk.nl website. Unfortunately, this stream is only available in the Netherlands, because in other countries different broadcasters own the rights to the UFC events. Fortunately, there is a way to watch the Dutch stream outside the Netherlands by using a VPN. Below we’ll explain how this works.
Using a VPN to Unblock Free UFC 263 streams
Streaming services often only have the rights to air certain movies or events in a specific country. The websites check your location based on your IP address. The IP address is unique to your internet connection and can tell a website where you are in the world. With a VPN you can take on a different IP address and pretend to be somewhere else. For instance, by connecting to a VPN server in the Netherlands you take on a Dutch IP and can access Dutch streaming services. In this case you can use a VPN to access this Dutch UFC stream. However, there are many more uses for this VPN unblocking method. For instance, you can access the US Netflix library, anywhere in the world, with a VPN.
