Quick read
Dana White has shown how the arena will look for the UFC's White House event celebrating America's 250th anniversary. The octagon will be constructed on the South Lawn with the White House visible in the background. The stage is being built in Europe, shipped to Philadelphia, then trucked to Washington DC. White emphasized the 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 area. The two-day fan festival will include press conferences, weigh-ins, and a performance by Zac Brown Band, with more than 100,000 fans expected across all events.
