UFC America 250 fight week is taking over Washington D.C., with events staged at the White House and the Ellipse as part of a high-profile celebration.
The UFC-branded festivities are being held at the White House and the Ellipse in Washington D.C., with fights scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. ET on Paramount+. The event coincides with U.S. president Donald Trump's birthday.
UFC president Dana White describes the event as more than a cage fighting event and part of a month-long celebration of America's 250th birthday. The celebration features marching bands, a marine drill platoon, Golden Knights skydivers, U.S. Navy Blue Angels, U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, Nitro Circus dirt bikes, and large crowd activities at the Ellipse.
Tens of thousands of fans have gathered at the Ellipse over several days to enjoy the UFC America 250 festivities, while MMA Mania is providing ongoing updates and highlights from the UFC White House event in Washington D.C.
