Cage Warriors to Launch 2026 Schedule With CW 200 in Dublin

Cage Warriors, regarded as one of Europe’s leading mixed martial arts promotions, has confirmed plans to begin its 2026 schedule with a milestone event in Ireland. The promotion’s 200th event, CW 200, is set for Saturday, February 21.

The card will take place in Dublin, which Cage Warriors has often referred to as its spiritual home, and the organization—now majority Irish-owned—has a long history of staging events in the city. CW 200 is expected to recognize the promotion’s development over more than two decades, as well as the fighters and supporters associated with it.

While the lineup has yet to be announced, the location suggests a strong Irish presence on the card. However, the promotion has indicated that international names and high-profile matchups are also likely, with further details to follow in the coming weeks.

Promotion to Offer Largest Performance Bonus in Its History

Cage Warriors President Graham Boylan also revealed that there will be a bumper $10,000 Performance of the Night bonus up for grabs on the evening – double the amount that the organization usually offers.

“Cage Warriors is a special organisation with a special place in this sport’s history, and Cage Warriors 200 is going to be a special night to reflect that.” said CW President Graham Boylan.

“No other organisation has played as significant a role in the development of the sport in the UK, Ireland and Europe over such a length of time, and we’ll be celebrating this incredible milestone on February 21st.”

“This is going to be one of the biggest events Cage Warriors has ever held; we’ve some huge things planned and I can assure you that every fighter on the roster and every fan of the sport is going to want to be a part of it!”
