Trump to Host UFC Cage Match at White House for His Birthday
A temporary, octagon-shaped cage is being erected on the White House South Lawn for an upcoming UFC bout, coinciding with celebrations for the nation’s 250th anniversary and President Trump’s 80th birthday. The fight space will feature a red, white, and blue stage, a star-spangled arch, and large screens, surrounded by thousands of temporary seats for spectators. This event is part of a series of patriotic commemorations, including an IndyCar race and a fair, and is the latest in a series of construction and renovation projects undertaken at the White House during President Trump’s term.
