Dana White reveals White House event arena design and production details

UFC President Dana White has shown how the arena will look for the upcoming White House event commemorating America's 250th anniversary. White explained that the production team is building a stage in Europe that will be shipped to Philadelphia and then transported by truck to Washington, D.C., to be erected on the South Lawn of the White House. White emphasized that the UFC is funding the entire event privately with no taxpayer money being used, calling it a gift from the UFC to America. The event has already received over 70,000 ticket applications through UFCfreedom250.com, with free tickets available at the Ellipse park across from the arena. White stated that more than 100,000 fans will attend fight week events, which will include a two-day fan festival, press conference, weigh-ins, and a performance by the Zac Brown Band with celebrity guests and large screen fight viewing.
