Q101 radio held a recent interview with AEW CEO Tony Khan. One of the topics discussed included Khan officially announcing that this year’s AEW Worlds End event will be taking place on December 27th at the NOW Arena in Chicago, Illinois.
“We’ve had such a great run of AEW TV these past few weeks…we’ve had so many great pay-per-view shows here over the years. I thought it would be great for the first time ever, this holiday season, to bring AEW Worlds End to the Chicagoland area at least…I’m very excited to announce December 27th, for the first time ever, AEW Worlds End is coming to Chicago. We’re going to have a great event. It’s going to be a great way to spend the holiday weekend. Saturday, December 27th, for the first time ever, AEW Worlds End at the NOW Arena, where it all began for us.”
It was announced that tickets for this upcoming event will officially go on sale starting on September 2nd for the pre-sale and September 9th for the general public.
