The 2024 WrestleMania event now has a location.
The “Grandest Stage of Them All” is WWE’s biggest yearly event. This year’s WrestleMania two-night event took place inside AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas back in April.
The 2023 WrestleMania show will be held inside SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, California.
But what about the 2024 location?
The City of Brotherly Love
WWE has announced that WrestleMania 40 is scheduled for Saturday, April 6 and Sunday, April 7 in 2024. Playing host to WWE’s biggest event will be Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, PA.
