The UFC is adding star power to its upcoming mega event in Washington, D.C. Zac Brown Band will headline the UFC Freedom 250 Fan Fest. The event will feature live music, weigh-ins, meet and greets, and a watch party for fights at the White House. President Trump announced the UFC fight last summer, with the event funded by UFC parent company TKO Group Holdings. TKO president Mark Shapiro emphasized the event’s long-term benefits over profit. The event is seen as a strategic investment to expand the UFC’s audience and success. UFC CEO Dana White’s close ties to President Trump were also mentioned.
