UFC confirms $60M White House event for June 14

Dana White confirmed that the UFC's historic White House event remains scheduled for June 14, 2026, on the South Lawn in Washington, D.C., dismissing rumors of a date change. The unprecedented event will commemorate the United States' 250th anniversary and is expected to cost the UFC between $60 million and potentially more, with the organization anticipated to lose at least $30 million on the card. Approximately 3,000 to 4,000 guests will be seated cageside, with no general public ticket sales, while up to 85,000 additional fans could gather in a secondary viewing area. White indicated the fight card is already 'built' with six to seven matches planned.
