Overview

  • New reporting says the targeted June 14, 2026 timeline could shift, with the White House card possibly happening sooner.
  • Variety reports that world dignitaries will join President Trump for a private dinner before attending the event.
  • A White House spokesperson, Anna Kelly, called the America250-linked showcase “a spectacular event.”
  • The broadcast is expected to run on CBS as an early feature of the UFC’s new Paramount rights deal reported at $7.7 billion.
  • Attendance will be by invitation only with no public ticket sales, and Dana White has projected fewer than 5,000 on-site guests as fighters lobby for spots.
