Dana White revealed the arena design for the upcoming UFC event at the White House, showing it will be constructed in Europe then shipped to Philadelphia before being trucked to Washington D.C. for assembly on the South Lawn. The UFC is funding the entire event themselves with no taxpayer money, presenting it as a gift for America's 250th anniversary. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets at UFCfreedom250.com, with free tickets available for the Ellipse park area across from the arena. The event weekend will include a two-day fan festival featuring press conference, weigh-ins, performances by Zac Brown Band, celebrity guests, and big screen fight viewing, expecting over 100,000 fans to attend various activities.
