Dana White reveals White House event arena design for UFC 250th anniversary

Dana White showcased how the arena will look for the UFC event at the White House, explaining his vision to his production team that he wants the White House visible in the background during fights. The stage is being built in Europe, will be shipped to Philadelphia, then trucked to Washington DC to be erected on the South Lawn of the White House. White emphasized that UFC is funding everything privately with no taxpayer money, calling it a gift to celebrate America's 250th anniversary. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets at UFCfreedom250.com. Free tickets will be available for the Ellipse, a park across from the arena that can accommodate over 100,000 fans. The two-day fan festival will include press conferences, weigh-ins, and a performance by Zac Brown Band, with celebrity guests and big-screen fight viewing.
