Las Vegas Lands Another Major Sporting Event: WWE WrestleMania 42

Officials from TKO Group Holdings announced on Wednesday that WWE’s biggest show of the year, WrestleMania 42, would return to Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas for the two-day event on Saturday, April 18 and Sunday, April 19, 2026.

In partnership with the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA), WWE is looking to build on the success of last year’s spectacle, which became the highest-grossing event in WWE history, drawing 124,693 fans over two nights.

“Las Vegas helped to deliver the biggest WrestleMania of all time, shattering records and delivering an amazing week for fans around the world,” WWE President Nick Khan said. “We look forward to once again working with the talented and effective teams at the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority and Allegiant Stadium to bring WrestleMania back to the Sports and Entertainment Capital of the World.”

When Las Vegas hosts WrestleMania 42 in 2026, it will be the popular travel destination’s third time hosting the premium live event (1993 and 2025).

In addition to hosting the two-day showcase, Las Vegas will host WWE’s Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown, as well as NXT’s Stand & Deliver. The company’s fan experience, dubbed WWE World, will also make its way back to the Nevada city next year.

“We are honored that WWE has once again selected Las Vegas to host the biggest event on their calendar,” LVCVA CEO Steve Hill said. ‘Bringing WrestleMania 42 to Las Vegas underscores our city’s reputation for elevating world-class events to new heights.”

“We are excited to build on last year’s success and deliver an even more incredible experience for the WWE Universe in 2026,” Hill continued.

WWE officials said additional ticket details and event information will be announced in the coming months.
