Additionally, AEW announced that a special episode of Dynamite + Collision will take place at the Viejas Arena in San Diego, California, on July 1.
As noted above, this will be the fifth edition of Dynamite: Beach Break. The inaugural event took place in Jacksonville, Florida, in 2021. The subsequent event, in 2022, was hosted by the Wolstein Center in Cleveland, Ohio. After a one-year break, the TV special returned in July 2024, with Wintrust Arena in Chicago, Illinois, playing the host.
Last year’s event, which took place at NOW Arena, in Hoffman Estates, Illinois, was headlined by a Steel Cage Match between then-champion Jon Moxley and Samoa Joe for the AEW World Championship.
