President Donald Trump celebrated his 80th birthday by hosting a UFC event on the South Lawn of the White House, featuring professional combat sports and a wide variety of guests.

川普總統在白宮南草坪舉辦了一場 UFC 賽事以慶祝其 80 歲生日，包含專業格鬥運動及各界賓客。

The event, called 'UFC Freedom 250,' cost approximately $60 million and included seven fights with 14 international athletes. The program began with a national anthem performance by Zac Brown and ended with impressive aerial displays by the Navy Blue Angels and Air Force Thunderbirds. In total, about 4,300 people attended, including 1,200 active-duty military members.

這次名為「UFC Freedom 250」的賽事花費約 6,000 萬美元，包含 7 場對決及 14 位國際運動員。節目由 Zac Brown 演唱國歌開場，最後以海軍「藍天使」與空軍「雷鳥」震撼的空中表演收尾。總計約有 4,300 人出席，其中包括 1,200 名現役軍人。

There was a clear difference between the guests who attended and those who did not. High-ranking officials, such as Vice President JD Vance and several Cabinet Secretaries, were present, along with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and the First Family. However, some famous celebrities, including Adam Sandler, Dwayne Johnson, and Tom Brady, reportedly turned down invitations from UFC CEO Dana White. Comedian Nate Bargatze also attended, although he emphasized his commitment to remaining politically neutral.

出席與缺席的賓客之間有明顯差異。高階官員如副總統 JD Vance 及多位內閣部長均在場，Meta 執行長 Mark Zuckerberg 與第一家庭亦出席。然而，部分知名名人，包括 Adam Sandler、Dwayne Johnson 及 Tom Brady，據報導拒絕了 UFC 執行長 Dana White 的邀請。喜劇演員 Nate Bargatze 亦出席，但他強調自己致力於保持政治中立。

Many participants and performers described the event as a patriotic celebration. For instance, Zac Brown stated that his performance was meant to honor military members rather than support a specific political party. Furthermore, several fighters praised the President's courage for making the event possible. This celebration also served as a starting point for the 'America 250' events planned for this summer in Washington, D.C.

許多參與者與表演者將此次活動描述為一場愛國慶典。例如，Zac Brown 表示其表演旨在向軍人致敬，而非支持特定政黨。此外，數名格鬥員稱讚總統勇於促成此活動。這次慶祝活動亦作為今年夏天在華盛頓特區計劃舉辦的「America 250」系列活動的起點。

The event ended with the President describing the spectacle as something never seen before in sports, shortly before he left for the G7 summit in France.

活動結束時，總統將這場盛況形容為體育界前所未見的，隨後他便出發前往法國參加 G7 峰會。
