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

Dana White showcased the planned arena design for the UFC event at the White House, emphasizing that the White House will be prominently visible in the background during fights. The stage is currently being constructed in Europe before being shipped to Philadelphia and then trucked to Washington DC, where it will be erected on the South Lawn of the White House. White stressed that UFC is funding the entire event without using any taxpayer money, calling it a gift from the UFC for America's 250th anniversary. He emphasized the event is about celebrating the United States rather than politics. More than 70,000 people have already applied for tickets on UFCfreedom250.com. The Ellipse, a park across from the arena, will offer free tickets and is expected to accommodate over 100,000 fans across the fight week events. A two-day fan festival will include press conferences, weigh-ins, and a performance by Zac Brown Band.
