March has arrived, and it is bringing an absolutely relentless week of premium international sports to the screens at Upper Deck. Whether you are a petrolhead, a fight fan, or a football fanatic, this week’s calendar is stacked from morning until night. We have the cold beers pouring, the kitchen firing out our signature menu, and the ultimate atmosphere ready for you on Soi 20.
The Main Events: UFC 326 & The Australian Grand Prix Sunday, 8 March is shaping up to be a legendary day. We open early for one of the most highly anticipated rematches of the year at UFC 326, featuring Max Holloway taking on Charles Oliveira at 9:00 AM. As the fights wrap up, the adrenaline shifts straight to the tarmac. We will be broadcasting the Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix race live at 11:00 AM. Make sure you also catch the qualifying session on Saturday afternoon at 12:00 PM to see who takes pole position.
A Massive Weekend of Football and Rugby The weekend is packed with heritage sporting events. Football fans can dive right into the FA Cup, starting with a unique clash between Wrexham and Chelsea late Friday night (technically Saturday morning at 12:45 AM). Saturday evening features Mansfield Town hosting Arsenal at 7:15 PM, while Sunday brings Fulham against Southampton. Rugby fans are treated to a massive Six Nations double-header on Saturday night, starting with Scotland versus France at 9:10 PM, immediately followed by Italy taking on England.
American Sports, Baseball, and More Throughout the week, our screens will be buzzing with global action. Basketball fans can enjoy daily morning NBA matchups featuring heavyweights like the Nuggets, Lakers, Clippers, and Celtics. We are also thrilled to broadcast the World Baseball Classic, with international matchups running from Thursday straight through to the following Tuesday. Adding to the variety, we have the PGA Tour’s Arnold Palmer Invitational, ONE Friday Fights 145 for the local Muay Thai fans, and the return of the AFL on Sunday afternoon with St Kilda playing Collingwood.
