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

Dana White has shown how the arena will look for the upcoming UFC event at the White House, with the venue being constructed to feature the White House as a backdrop during fights. The stage is being built in Europe, will be shipped to Philadelphia, then transported by truck to Washington DC where it will be erected on the South Lawn. White emphasized that UFC is funding the entire event without using any taxpayer money, presenting it as a gift for America's 250th anniversary. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets through UFCfreedom250.com, with free tickets available for the Ellipse park area across from the arena. The two-day fan festival will include a press conference, weigh-ins, and performances by Zac Brown Band, with more than 100,000 fans expected to attend all weekend activities.
