WrestleMania is officially headed back to Las Vegas for the first time since 1993.

In recent weeks, Las Vegas had become the frontrunner to host WrestleMania 41. That was made official today with WWE announcing that WrestleMania 41 will be held at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Saturday, April 19 and Saturday, April 20, 2025.

The announcement aired during NBC's pre-race coverage of the Kentucky Derby.

This marks a bit of a schedule change for WrestleMania. Traditionally, the show has been held in early April. It's now being pushed back a few weeks in 2025. WWE president Nick Khan said last month that WrestleMania would be moving away from taking place on the same weekend as the Final Four of NCAA March Madness.

Night two of WrestleMania 41 is the same day as Easter Sunday.

Allegiant Stadium is the home of the NFL's Las Vegas Raiders. SummerSlam 2021 was the first WWE event to be held at the stadium.

WrestleMania coming to Vegas is a collaboration between WWE and the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority. In the days surrounding WrestleMania, Las Vegas will also host Raw, SmackDown, the 2025 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony, NXT Stand & Deliver, and the WWE World convention.

Ticket details will be announced in the coming months. WWE has started a mailing list for those interested in pre-sale information when it becomes available.

Minneapolis was considered one of the contenders to host WrestleMania 41 before Las Vegas was chosen as the location.
