WrestleMania history: Every location, host cities, venue for WWE's biggest live event
Another WrestleMania is fast approaching and WWE's iconic premium live event is returning to Las Vegas for the first time in more than 30 years.
What was initially dubbed the Super Bowl of pro wrestling, beginning with WrestleMania 1 in 1985, is now the centerpiece of the WWE calendar and a de facto industry convention given all the fans and legends that descend on the WrestleMania host city each year.
Allegiant Stadium, home to the Las Vegas Raiders, will be the site of WrestleMania 41 beginning on Saturday, April 19 and continuing through Sunday, April 20. It's a more conventional setting than WrestleMania 9, which was held in a stadium built in a converted parking lot at Caesars Palace. This will also be the latest date for the event in its history. The card's two main events are scheduled to feature Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins vs. CM Punk in a triple threat match on the first night and Cody Rhodes vs. John Cena for the WWE championship on the second night.
Ahead of WrestleMania 41 this weekend, here's a breakdown of where every previous WrestleMania took place and a look ahead to what city and stadium will serve as host for next year's WrestleMania:

On May 5, 2023, Tennessee Titans president Burke Nihill told 3HL on 104.5 The Zone that WWE had committed to bringing WrestleMania to Nashville as long as the new stadium is finished in time. Currently, the new home of the Titans is slated to be completed in January 2027, which would provide an eight-week or so cushion to get the "Granddaddy of Them All" in town.

So, we know that WrestleMania will be going to Indianapolis at some point. The WWE and the Indiana Sports Corp reached an eight-year, multi-event agreement that began with the 2025 Royal Rumble. It hasn't been confirmed for 2028, but we know it has to happen by 2033.
