Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) presents UFC 129: "St. Pierre vs. Shields" at the Rogers Centre on April 30 in Ontario, Toronto, Canada.
Prior to the pay-per-view televised event, the promotion will also be holding a special two-day Fan Expo at the nearby Direct Energy Centre from April 29 right up until fight time on April 30 to coincide with the UFC 129 broadcast.
What, that's still not enough for you?
You're in luck then, as the promotion will be holding a press conference and fan event next Tuesday (Feb. 8) at the Rogers Centre featuring a special Q&A session with UFC President Dana White and current UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre beginning at 5 p.m. ET.
But that's not all.
Also in attendance will be UFC Featherweight Champion Jose Aldo, as he joins UFC 129 opponent Mark Hominick as well as Jake Shields and Toronto area natives Sean Pierson and Claude Patrick for a free autograph signing from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. ET.
First come, first serve, which means you might want to think about getting on line in the next couple of hours if you hope to have a shot at getting a few John Hancocks come Tuesday.
UFC 129 is set to feature a main event between Canada's own Georges St. Pierre, defending his welterweight title against fresh challenger -- and former Elite XC and Strikeforce champion -- Jake Shields.
The event is also expected to include "Father Time" Randy Couture, defying the odds once again to take on Karate master Lyoto Machida.
