LAS VEGAS, Nevada — LFA President Sven Bean announced today that the LFA has entered into two event production agreements in July of 2023.
“The LFA team will return to two amazing dome shaped venues across two continents in July,” said Bean, who handles venue booking and scheduling for the LFA.
“We will kick things off by returning to Brazil and the CIDE Casa Branca, in Caraguatatuba, São Paulo,” stated Bean.
“Again, our incredible LFA Brazil team will do the heavy lifting as we return to Caraguatatuba, São Paulo, Brazil. Maintaining a successful working relationship with Mayor Aguilar Junior, Rafael Feijao has created a solid infrastructure locally that enables us to produce world class events. I’m sure the CIDE Casa Branca will once again be packed to the dome shaped ceiling for LFA 162!”
LFA VP of South America, Rafael Feijao added:
“I am excited for the LFA to return to Caraguatatuba in July. With each event, we strengthen our relationship with Mayor Aguilar Junior. With his support, we will continue with our series of events in the incredible city. I also like that we are able to support the local community. I’m proud to say we will once again be accepting donations of food in exchange for tickets to the event. The food will then be distributed to underprivileged families in the area. I look forward to an exciting event, and the next step of growth for LFA Brazil on July 7th!”
LFA 162 will be broadcast live at 6PM PST/9PM EST on UFC FIGHT PASS.
“The following week, the LFA finally returns to the great state of Texas and the Bell County Expo in Belton, TX on Friday July 21st,” Bean continued.
“We have planned a sort of Tour of Texas in the coming months, and that kicks off with our friends at the Bell County Expo. We have had some pretty exciting events inside the iconic dome shaped venue over the years. The team there always treats us like family, and I’m ready to return to our stomping grounds in central Texas!”
Bell County Expo Executive Director, Tim Stephens added:
“We are excited to bring LFA back to The Bell County Expo in July. It will be just over a year since their last event here, and we are ready to roll out the welcome wagons. It’s a pleasure to work with their staff of professionals. The last event here was one action packed from bell to bell. We are looking forward to another great night for the area fans on July 21st!”
Tickets for LFA 163 are on sale NOW through BellCountyExpo.com.
LFA 163 will be broadcast live at 6PM PST/9PM EST on UFC FIGHT PASS.
