Dana White details weather contingency plans for White House UFC event

May 4, 2026

Dana White discussed the UFC's operational plans for various weather scenarios during the upcoming outdoor event at the White House. The UFC president acknowledged his general dislike for outdoor events due to their unpredictability but confirmed that the show will continue through rain or snow, with only lightning forcing a stoppage. White revealed that the UFC is working with military personnel who can predict weather 10 days in advance, providing updates every two hours leading up to the event and hourly in the final week. The organization is also collaborating with a company experienced in outdoor concerts to monitor conditions. White noted they have flexibility to shift the event timing by up to two hours in either direction if necessary. He joked that the only other time he agreed to an outdoor event was in Abu Dhabi, where he could confidently predict the weather himself.
