WrestleMania 42 just wrapped up in Las Vegas, and the entire world is already asking one question — where is the next one? The answer is historic: WrestleMania 43, in 2027, will take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It will be the first time WWE's flagship event is held outside North America.
What Happened at WrestleMania 42
WrestleMania 42 took place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on April 18-19. It was the second consecutive year the stadium hosted the event. The two-night show is always the most important date on WWE's calendar — where top stars compete for the biggest prizes, and fans travel from around the world to attend.
WrestleMania 43 — Riyadh, 2027
It was announced in September that WrestleMania 43 will be held in Saudi Arabia. The specific venue has not yet been revealed.
It will be only the third WrestleMania held outside the United States — the previous two took place in Canada (Toronto) — but the first ever outside North America. The decision is controversial — some fans are outraged — but Saudi Arabia has been a major partner for WWE for years.
When
Exact dates have not been announced. If WWE continues its recent tradition of mid-April scheduling, the likely dates are April 10-11 or April 17-18, 2027.
WrestleMania 44 — Indianapolis or New Orleans?
The site for WrestleMania 2028 has not been confirmed. The leading candidates are Indianapolis and New Orleans.
Indianapolis has a partnership deal with WWE that includes hosting a future WrestleMania. New Orleans was originally scheduled to host WrestleMania 42, but the event was moved to Las Vegas — so the city has been promised a future edition.
