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

Dana White showcased how the arena will look for the upcoming UFC event at the White House. The stage is being constructed in Europe and will be shipped to Philadelphia before being transported by truck to Washington D.C., where it will be erected on the South Lawn of the White House. White emphasized that UFC is paying for everything out of pocket with no taxpayer money being spent, describing it as a gift to America for its 250th anniversary. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets on UFCfreedom250.com. Free tickets will be available at the Ellipse, a park across from the arena that can accommodate a large crowd. More than 100,000 fans are expected to attend various fight week events including a two-day fan festival, press conference, and weigh-ins, with the Zac Brown Band performing throughout the day.
