Here's what we know about the White House event as of now, with much more to come. The following month, White announced via social media the White House event was "done," following a meeting with Trump in Washington. He has repeatedly referenced a video rendering of the White House grounds with the Octagon included. He called the reported $20 million spent on Noche UFC at the Sphere "ashtray money" compared to the estimated cost of the White House event. White has only said it will be "the card that people expect" for the White House.
