Dana White Reveals White House UFC Event Arena Design and Details

Dana White showcased the planned arena design for the upcoming UFC event at the White House, emphasizing that the Oval Office will be visible in the background during fights. The stage is being constructed in Europe before being shipped to Philadelphia and then transported by truck to Washington D.C., where it will be erected on the South Lawn. White stressed that UFC is funding the entire event without using taxpayer money, positioning it as a gift to America for its 250th anniversary. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets through UFCfreedom250.com, with free tickets available at the Ellipse park across from the arena. White expects more than 100,000 fans 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. He emphasized the event is about celebrating the United States rather than politics.
