It looks like WWE Crown Jewel 2026 is moving venues, but where? The official X account for Riyadh Season announced today that the event is moving to a new venue, but it didn’t specify where.

The announcement reads, “We would like to inform you that ‘WWE Crown Jewel’ has been moved to a new venue. All ticket holders will receive a full refund, and tickets will be re-released to everyone within the next 48 hours.”

As previously reported, setup for the event had already begun in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Fan-recorded footage recently showed construction on the temporary outdoor venue for the WWE PLE.

Per an update from PWInsider Elite (via WrestlePurists), the event is remaining in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, but will be held in a different location than originally planned for the city.

As previously reported, the U.S. Embassy & Consulates in Saudi Arabia issued multiple security alerts, warning U.S. citizens not to travel to the country and advising caution regarding locations that could be potential targets for attacks, including tourist locations and large gatherings, hotels and locations where U.S. citizens gather, transportation hubs, and entertainment venues.

Additionally, the Department of State ordered non-emergency U.S. government employees and their family members to leave the country due to safety risks. The ongoing war in Iran has led the Iranian-backed Houthi forces to target U.S. government officials and airports in the region.

WWE is still advertising the Crown Jewel 2026 for Riyadh Season Stadium at KAFD and has yet to issue an announcement or change regarding the venue. This is an evolving situation, so readers should stay tuned for more details as they develop.
