Building on last week's details of the historic UFC White House event, CEO Dana White announced that the full fight card for the June 14, 2026, spectacle will be revealed during Saturday's UFC 326 broadcast. The card features six or seven bouts amid speculation involving Conor McGregor and Jon Jones.

UFC President Dana White confirmed at the UFC 326 pre-fight press conference in Las Vegas that the complete lineup for the White House card—previously detailed as a June 14, 2026, event on the South Lawn celebrating Flag Day, the U.S.'s 250th anniversary, and President Trump's 80th birthday—will be announced during the UFC 326 broadcast (CBS 8-10 p.m. ET, then Paramount+).

In a Piers Morgan interview, White disclosed the card includes six fights, potentially seven, stating, “I’m looking at it right now. I’m staring at all six fights.” He highlighted secretive daily matchmaking and dismissed online rumors as amusing leaks.

Venue plans show discrepancies: Trump envisions a 100,000-seat stadium, while TKO's Ari Emanuel described 3,000-4,000 on the South Lawn plus viewing at The Ellipse, with costs up to $60 million.

Fighter buzz continues, with McGregor claiming a 'done deal' in 2025 (negotiations ongoing per White) and Jones in talks to represent again. Alex Pereira is rumored. Critics like John Pavlovitz decry it as 'insanity.'
