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

Dana White showcased the arena design for the upcoming UFC event at the White House, explaining that the stage is being built in Europe before being shipped to Philadelphia and then trucked to Washington D.C. for setup on the South Lawn. White emphasized that UFC is funding the entire event without using any taxpayer money, calling it a gift to America for its 250th anniversary. He stressed the event is not political but rather a celebration of the United States. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets through UFCfreedom250.com. Free tickets will be available for the Ellipse park area across from the main arena, which can accommodate over 100,000 fans. The fight weekend will include a two-day fan festival featuring press conferences, weigh-ins, and a performance by the Zac Brown Band, along with celebrity guests and big-screen fight viewing.
