WWE is continuing its push to fill Allegiant Stadium for WrestleMania 42, with new details confirming additional ticket discounts and updated sales figures for the two-night event in Las Vegas.
According to Dave Meltzer in the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE recently launched another round of discounted tickets, offering 25 percent off for both nights of WrestleMania 42. The move is part of a wider effort to increase attendance and ensure a strong crowd for the company’s biggest annual show.
The promotion extends beyond WrestleMania 42 itself. WWE has also applied similar discounts to its full WrestleMania Week schedule. This includes WWE RAW, Friday Night SmackDown, and the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony, all receiving price reductions to boost overall ticket sales.
Meltzer detailed the strategy and current figures, stating, “WWE did another sale, this time 25 percent off sale for both nights of WrestleMania this past week in another attempt to boost sales and make sure the place is full, which it will be by the end. It was not only WrestleMania, but the Hall of Fame, Raw and Smackdown all getting a 25 percent off sale, coming a week after a 31.6 percent sale for all of those shows.”
He also shared updated numbers for the surrounding events. “The 25 percent off also included the other events WWE is putting on that week. [These include] Smackdown at 5,810 tickets out which has to be a major disappointment and Raw at 7,305 at T-Mobile Arena, while the Hall of Fame, in a smaller setting, is at 2,183.”
Despite these efforts, WrestleMania 42 ticket sales are still behind last year’s pace. Current estimates show a gap of about 13.3 percent compared to WrestleMania 41. However, the difference has improved after recent discount campaigns.
As of now, Night 1 on April 18 has around 39,866 tickets distributed. Night 2 on April 19 is slightly higher, with about 41,330 tickets out. WWE remains confident that both nights will pass 50,000 attendees before the event.
Meltzer noted, “Right now after the latest sale, WrestleMania in Las Vegas at Allegiant Stadium has 39,866 for 4/18 and 41,330 for 4/19. They are 13.3 percent behind last year, which is closer than the 18 percent behind they were doing before the two major sales. In the end, they’ll have 50,000 or more in and will announce a number that is about the same if not slightly bigger than last year.”
Another key sign of demand comes from resale prices. Secondary market tickets are currently lower than last year, with entry prices at $205 for Night 1 and $211 for Night 2. Meltzer explained, “The secondary market get in prices of $205 for the first night and $211 for the second night 23.8 percent down from the same period last year, so that’s probably a better measure of the ticket demand.”
WrestleMania 42 is scheduled for April 18 and April 19 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada.
