But a person who has a ticket to the UFC event and plans to attend the fundraiser said that while the two events are separate, \u201cI certainly do not think the timing is coincidence,\u201d in that some of Trump\u2019s well-heeled supporters may go to both.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets for the UFC matches are free, though NBC News reported last month that sponsorship packages, including cageside seats, have been selling for $1 million or more. A person close to the company said that the sponsorship revenue will \u201chelp offset UFC\u2019s cost to put on the event\u201d and that none of the money will go to Trump or to his political or private business interests.<\/p>\n<p>The UFC event \u2014 which will be held on Trump\u2019s 80th birthday \u2014 is part of the White House-planned activities to honor the nation\u2019s 250th anniversary. Trump has a long-running relationship with the UFC and is close to its president and CEO, Dana White. Trump has attended three UFC matches since his second term began; he went to two other UFC events during his 2024 campaign.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>White has been a loyal political supporter, speaking in support of Trump at past Republican presidential conventions. <\/p>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><iframe allowfullscreen=\"\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/donald-trump\/cage-match-tickets-trump-ufc-fight-white-house-rcna342904\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/iframe.nbcnews.com\/z5kWw2yJ?_showcaption=true&amp;media=0&amp;app=1\" title=\"NBC News, The cage match is on for tickets to Trump\u2019s UFC fight at the White House\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p>In public appearances, Trump has showcased the upcoming event on the White House South Lawn. On Saturday night, the fighters will take part in a ceremonial weigh-in event on the Ellipse, just south of the White House. The Zac Brown Band, a country music group, is then scheduled to perform. On Sunday, the fights are set to begin at 8 p.m. ET and end after midnight.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are building something in front of the White House that\u2019s quite attractive to a lot of people,\u201d Trump told reporters last week of the 92-foot-tall, 600-ton fighting ring specially constructed for the event.<\/p>\n<p>The spectacle now faces a legal challenge.<\/p>\n<p>A lawsuit filed Saturday by the Public Integrity Project seeks to block the event, because, it says, it improperly uses the White House grounds for a \u201cfor-profit\u201d event and will make money for a private company, the UFC.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/trustedmovinggroups.com\/?p=923\">Louisiana ICE facility reports its second detainee death in less than 2 months<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis plan is deeply corrupt,\u201d the lawsuit reads. \u201cThe event, billed as \u2018UFC Freedom 250,\u2019 is (as the name suggests) being organized by the UFC, whose chief executive, Dana White, is a close friend and ally of the President.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe event will likely be profitable for the UFC and its partners,\u201d the lawsuit alleges.<\/p>\n<p>The White House told NBC News it believes the lawsuit is \u201cobstructionist, baseless, and dilatory.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On an earnings call last month, Mark Shapiro, president and chief operating officer of UFC\u2019s parent company, TKO Holdings, said the company expects to lose as much as $30 million on the matches and other festivities in Washington.<\/p>\n<p>The fundraiser is at least the sixth such $1 million-per-person event held by Trump-aligned groups for the midterm elections.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans at nearly all levels hold a significant midterm cash advantage over Democrats, who expect to be outpaced financially in many key House and Senate races.<\/p>\n<p>A major exception is the Senate race in Texas, where the Trump-endorsed state attorney general, Ken Paxton, last month knocked off Republican Sen.
