Dana White reveals White House event arena design and logistics

Dana White showcased how the arena will look for the UFC event at the White House, with the building as a backdrop. The octagon stage is being built in Europe, then shipped to Philadelphia before being trucked to Washington D.C. for setup on the South Lawn. White emphasized that UFC is funding everything privately with no taxpayer money, calling it a gift for America's 250th anniversary. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets on UFCfreedom250.com, with free tickets available at the Ellipse park across from the arena. The event will be a two-day fan festival featuring press conferences, weigh-ins, performances by Zac Brown Band, celebrity guests, and big-screen fight viewing for over 100,000 fans expected across all weekend activities.
