As noted before, WWE had announced this past February that next year’s WrestleMania 42 event would be taking place on April 11-12, 2026 at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Wrestlenomics’ Brandon Thurston reported that in an official statement provided to him by the Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation, next year’s WrestleMania event will no longer be taking place in New Orleans.
Thurston reported that New Orleans will now be hosting next year’s Money in the Bank event and a future WrestleMania event instead based on the same statement given to him.
Thurston also reported that it is currently not known where next year’s WrestleMania 42 event will be taking place nor a specific date for next year’s Money in the Bank event.
Official statement from the Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation:
“The Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation and New Orleans & Company are working closely with our friends at TKO to expand our long-standing partnership. which will include UFC 318 on July 19, 2025, Money In The Bank in 2026, and WrestleMania – which will move from the currently scheduled 2026 timeframe to a future year.”
Thurston also reported that the reasons for the change in location and plans for WrestleMania 42 is currently not known.
