WWE taking WrestleMania to Allegiant Stadium

WWE's WrestleMania 41 will take place at Allegiant Stadium on April 19 and 20, 2025. WrestleMania IX was held at Caesars Palace in 1993, but the event has “since exploded into a week of ancillary events that culminates in two sold-out nights at football stadiums.” Last month’s WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia was the “highest-grossing event in company history” with 145,298 in attendance over two nights at Lincoln Financial Field (LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL, 5/4). The location of WrestleMania 41 was revealed during the preshow of Saturday's Kentucky Derby. The move to Las Vegas is a "huge win for those who were hoping for far warmer weather." Minneapolis had been "thought of to be the favorite" to land WrestleMania 41 (SI, 5/4).
