WWE Superstars will be joining UFC athletes at the Freedom 250 Fan Fest on Saturday, June 13 and Sunday, June 14 for meet and greets.
The announcement, made on social media by the UFC, does not show who will be in town from WWE’s side so far.
The Fan Fest will be held at The Ellipse in front of The White House and will feature meet and greets, immersive experiences, live panels and Q&As, the ceremonial weigh-ons, a Zac Brown concert, he UFC Freedom 250 watch party, and more.
The event is sponsored by crypto.com and Ram, with Ram being a frequent sponsor on WWE programming.
TKO, the parent company of WWE and UFC, will be eating a huge hit in terms of money to produce the event, with estimates hovering around $60 million. TKO will foot the bill for the cost of construction of the arena, fighter pay, and site restoration, which includes $700,000 to replace the grass on the South Lawn.
When all said and done, TKO expects to recover around $30 million through exclusive corporate sponsorships and other packages.
