Quick read
Dana White has showcased how the arena will look for the historic UFC event at the White House. The production team is building a custom stage in Europe that will be shipped to Philadelphia and then trucked to Washington DC to be erected on the South Lawn. White emphasized that the UFC is funding the entire event with no taxpayer money, calling it a gift to America for its 250th anniversary. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets through UFCfreedom250.com. The Ellipse park across from the arena will offer free tickets and can accommodate over 100,000 fans across a two-day fan festival featuring press conferences, weigh-ins, and performances by Zac Brown Band.
