Dana White reveals White House arena design for UFC Freedom 250 event

Dana White has unveiled the arena setup for the UFC's White House event celebrating America's 250th anniversary. The production team designed a stage with the White House prominently visible in the background during fights. The structure is being built in Europe before being shipped to Philadelphia and then transported by truck to Washington, where it will be erected on the South Lawn. White emphasized that UFC is funding the entire event without using taxpayer money, positioning it as a gift to America. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets through UFCfreedom250.com. Free tickets will be available in the Ellipse park across from the arena, with over 100,000 fans expected to attend various fight week events including a two-day fan festival, press conference, and weigh-ins featuring performances by the Zac Brown Band.
