Bellator MMA will be returning to Milan, Italy, this fall.

The California-based promotion announced Wednesday that it will hold a card at Allianz Cloud Arena on Oct. 29 in the Italian fashion hub. No fights for the card were revealed. The event’s main card will air live in the U.S. on Showtime, while prelims will stream on the Showtime Sports YouTube channel, the Bellator MMA YouTube channel and Pluto TV.

Bellator held three consecutive events in Milan with no fans during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 on Sept. 26, Oct. 1 and Oct. 3. The last time the Scott Coker-led organization touched down in Milan in front of a live audience was Bellator 230 on Oct. 12, 2019. That card saw current light heavyweight champ Vadim Nemkov submit former 185-pound king Rafael Carvalho in the second round of the evening’s main event.

Thus far in 2022, Bellator has held international events in Dublin, Paris and London, with a return to Ireland scheduled for later this year on Sept. 23.
