As previously reported, WrestleMania 42 is no longer being held in New Orleans, LA in 2026. So it raises the question of where WrestleMania 41 will be held next year? According to a report by NOLA.com, WWE is planning to return to Las Vegas, the home of WrestleMania 41, for WrestleMania 42 next year.

According to the report, “industry officials” are saying next year’s WrestleMania will also be held in Las Vegas. This year’s WrestleMania 41 was held at Allegiant Stadium over two nights, drawing an announced total attendance of 124,693 fans.

The report notes that due to the success of WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas, the current leadership of WWE decided that they’d rather hold the 2026 premium live event in Las Vegas and see what kind of response they receive from fans, per a source “who wasn’t authorized to be quoted by name.” WWE has yet to officially announce a new location and venue for WrestleMania 42.

TKO Board of Directors member Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson previously announced that WrestleMania 42 would be held at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. Due to the premium live event moving out of New Orleans, Money in the Bank 2026 is now expected to be held in the city instead, with WrestleMania returning to New Orleans sometime later in a different year.
