UFC has revealed what to expect on the 4th of July celebrations at the White House as brand new pictures show the magnitude of the fight.

If you didn’t know that Dana White’s White House UFC event is going ahead even after people online slated it, you do now.

President Donald Trump’s plan for America's 250th birthday is going to be a little edgier than previous events.

Independence Day in 2026 will see a UFC event on the White House grounds, as Trump promised it would be something for all the family to enjoy.

People have called the choice to host a UFC fight at the White House an embarrassing one for the nation, dubbing it ‘trashy’.

But others think it’ll be an event like no other.

One wrote: “This is going to be a spectacle for the ages.”

Another added: “These will be the highest priced tickets in history.”

A third wrote: “This will literally be bigger than any sports event ever, including the Super Bowl, World Cup and UFC Noche sphere. Can't wait.”

On 12 August, the UFC's president and CEO Dana White revealed it’s going to happen one way or another and hinted at his plans. But now, he’s revealed a lot more.

Now, we know it’ll occur on the White House’s South Lawn next year.

The first AI-generated images of the event have been revealed as they were shared with the Fox show.

It appears the White House will be covered in red, white and blue lights, and a UFC octagon in the middle of a makeshift arena.

Another image shows the weigh-ins stage set outside the Lincoln Memorial. Other pictures reveal fireworks, and a cover for the ring in case of rain on the day.

According to White, there will be less than 5,000 in the crowd, but 85,000 could access a ‘viewing area’ to see the whole thing.

He revealed Trump ‘loves’ the White House and wants to bring the ‘American people’ back to the White House in the form of attending various different events.

As for who is going to be fighting, while it’s not been confirmed, Conor McGregor told Fox he wants to throw his name in the hat: “The Mac is excited to get back for sure. I'm on it. This is me. Michael Chandler and myself have done the show The Ultimate Fighter, we've had good back and forth, he's a good, tough guy.”

White added on the show: “We'll build the greatest card of all time. Conor and I have been talking consistently, he wants this fight bad and when you get to a level that Conor is at you have to find things that motivate you, and the White House card has definitely motivated Conor McGregor.”

So, what can we expect?

“This will be one of the greatest and most historic sports events in history, and President Trump hosting it at the White House is a testament to his vision to celebrate America's monumental 250th anniversary,” said Trump spokesman Steven Cheung.
