The event took place at the Xfinity Mobile Arena, formerly known as Wells Fargo Center. UFC 330 featured 12 bouts, headlined by two world title fights: a welterweight championship bout between champion Islam Makhachev and No. 2 ranked contender Ian Machado Garry, and a co-main event involving women’s strawweight champion Mackenzie Dern against No. 4 ranked Gillian Robertson. The night's attendance reached 19,238 spectators, resulting in $6,715,776 in gate receipts, which broke previous records. UFC CEO Dana White expressed his excitement, stating that the event shattered the arena record by two million dollars, highlighting the significance of the event taking place in Philadelphia. The last UFC event held in Philadelphia was in March 2019, when the Xfinity Mobile Arena was known as Wells Fargo Center.",
