Dana White has shown how the arena will look for the upcoming UFC event at the White House. The stage is currently being constructed in Europe and will be shipped to Philadelphia before being transported by truck to Washington, D.C., where it will be erected on the South Lawn of the White House. White emphasized that UFC is funding the entire event privately with no taxpayer money being spent, calling it a gift to America for its 250th anniversary. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets at UFCfreedom250.com, with free tickets available for the Ellipse park across from the arena. The event weekend is expected to host more than 100,000 fans across various activities including a two-day fan festival, press conference, weigh-ins, and a performance by Zac Brown Band.
