He shared that the broadcast will be packed with hidden Easter eggs, and he’s offering an observant fan the chance to win $25,000 if they can spot every one of them:
"There are also going to be Easter eggs in each one of these films. We’re working it out with legal right now, but what I want to do is if somebody can find all the Easter eggs, I’ll give you $25,000."

The Noche UFC 306 card will be headlined by two title bouts. UFC bantamweight champion Sean O'Malley will defend his belt against top contender Merab Dvalishvili in the main event. Meanwhile, in the co-main event, UFC flyweight champion Alexa Grasso will look to settle her rivalry once and for all in a highly anticipated trilogy clash against Valentina Shevchenko. The rest of the card is packed with fighters of Mexican heritage.
Dana White shares details on short films set to premiere during Noche UFC 306 fights
Dana White and his team are set to fully harness the Sphere's state-of-the-art immersive audio and visual technology at Noche UFC 306. A lineup of six short films is scheduled to premiere between the main card fights, each celebrating Mexico's deep-rooted legacy in combat sports.
At the same press conference following DWCS, White shared insights into what the UFC production team has in store for the upcoming event:
"There’s movies, there’s chapters. Each chapter starts before the next fight. So, there will be a show open, and then the first movie will run, and it will end at the end of the fight. Then we call them 'worlds', and the fight will live inside this world. And the world will evolve while the fights are going on, but it will be very subtle. Clouds will move, fires will burn, birds will fly, or whatever the hell is going on in that time, and it will slowly evolve during the fight." [3:26 in the aforementioned video]
