Kid Rock is out, Zac Brown is in.
Despite his buddy-buddy relationship with UFC CEO Dana White and U.S. President Donald Trump, Kid Rock will not be playing the UFC Freedom 250 fan festival on June 13 in Washington D.C., held one day in front of the promotion’s ticket-less UFC White House fight card on the Paramount+ network.
Maybe Donnie is still fuming over that bet he lost.
The Grammy-winning, multi-platinum Zac Brown Band have 14 Billboard Hot Country Number 1 singles to their credit and have sold
over 11 million albums to date. The Freedom Fest concert kicks off their “Love & Fear Tour” in support of the new album they dropped last December.
The UFC Freedom 250 Fan Fest will be free to attend with a registered ticket and also include interactive experiences, live shows featuring UFC athletes, celebrity appearances, and exclusive on-stage moments, plus meet & greets, ceremonial weigh-ins, additional live music, and more.
I hope they bring enough Porta Potties for all those fans.
“It will be on the south lawn and then across the street is the park, it’s called the Ellipse,” White told CBS. “We’re going to have big screens and we’re going to have a stage, we’ll have music throughout the day. We’re basically going to take over D.C. that whole week with lots of different things for fight fans. Then obviously a one-of-one event to be able to have it at the White House. Fighters will actually walk from the Oval Office to the Octagon.”
