Quick read
Dana White has disclosed how the arena will appear for the upcoming UFC event at the White House celebrating America's 250th anniversary. The stage is being constructed in Europe, will be shipped to Philadelphia, then transported by truck to Washington D.C. to be erected on the South Lawn with the White House as backdrop. White emphasized that UFC is funding the entire event without taxpayer money as a gift to America. Over 70,000 people have applied for tickets through UFCfreedom250.com, with free tickets available for the Ellipse park across from the arena. More than 100,000 fans are expected across the fight weekend, which includes a two-day fan festival, press conference, weigh-ins, and a performance by Zac Brown Band.
