UFC Releases Freedom 250 Kits Ahead of June 14 White House Ufc Card
UFC has released special-edition fight kits for the white house ufc card, giving fighters a red, white and blue look for UFC Freedom 250 on June 14 at the White House South Lawn. The kits tie the event to the United States’ 250th birthday and will go on sale in Washington, D.C. during fight week.
UFC Freedom 250 Kits
The fight kit was created with Venum and described as a modern expression of the American fighting spirit, built for performance and designed for a moment of true historical significance. It includes a White House logo plus an exclusive USA 250 patch and logo created with Fanatics, the White House and America250.
UFC also put the kits on sale through ufcstore.com, venum.com and fanatics.com. In Washington, D.C., buyers can find them at the Lincoln Memorial press conference on June 12, at The Ellipse Park on June 13 and June 14, and at the UFC retail store pop-up at 1099 14th St, NW from June 11-14.
Trump’s White House Plan
Donald Trump first said last year that he wanted to host a UFC event at the White House, then repeated that plan at an Iowa rally in July. “We’re going to have a UFC fight — think of this — on the grounds of the White House,” he said.
He added, “Dana's gonna do it, Dana's great, one of a kind,” referring to Dana White, and said, “We're going to have a UFC fight, a championship fight. A full fight, like, 20-25,000 people. We're gonna do that as part of 250, also.”
June 14 Matchups
The June 14 event is set to feature two title bouts and five other matches. Ilia Topuria and Justin Gaethje are scheduled for the lightweight title, while Alex Pereira and Ciryl Gane are set for the heavyweight interim title.
For fans, the immediate takeaway is simple: the event now has a retail footprint attached to it before the first punch is thrown. The kits are already available online, and Washington buyers have three different June dates and four physical sales points to choose from.
