US president, Donald Trump has announced the construction of a 100,000 seat stadium at the White House ahead of the UFC event. This is to celebrate the United States of America’s 250th year of independence.
Donald Trump made the announcement shortly after he had earlier announced that the UFC will on June 14 host an event at the White House.
His words,
“They are going to put up something that’s really amazing. It’s really having to do with our great 250th birthday, where we’re having so many wonderful things. UFC is coming as you know, in front of the White House. They’re building literally a stadium, gonna have over 100,000 people.”
Even though Trump announced that the UFC event will take place on June 14, the UFC has not announced an official date.
