How to buy WWE tickets
Getty ImagesThe best place to buy WWE tickets is directly through the primary retailer for major events and house shows. Ticketmaster is the near-uniform partner for domestic and international fight cards shown by the promotion, typically offering tickets at face value for most major events.
Additionally, you can consider the secondary market, with StubHub one of the leading options for fans looking to purchase a resale ticket. However, ensure you have read all terms and conditions before purchasing through second-hand retailers, as some events may prohibit these tickets.

What are the best annual WWE events?
Getty ImagesWWE holds several supercard and pay-per-view events per year, but among their regular roster, there are a nominal number of flagship events that form the highlights of their yearly schedule.
They are WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, SummerSlam, and Survivor Series. Additionally, Money in the Bank is often considered in the same bracket as a marquee date on the promotion’s calendar.
These five events typically bring together several of the biggest wrestlers from both the RAW and SmackDown brands and either launch, advance or conclude major storylines and narratives that are developed weekly throughout the year.
What is the average ticket price for WWE events?
Getty ImagesThe average ticket price for WWE events depends on numerous factors, such as whether it is a pay-per-view or Supercard broadcast, an episode of SmackDown or RAW, or simply a house show as part of the touring circuit.
Supercard events typically can start in the triple figure range and rise exponentially, for example - the lowest price available for the upcoming Clash at the Castle was £145 ($182/€170) and rose to an eye-watering £2,945 ($3,670/€3,450).
However, house show prices in the United States typically start around $35, ensuring that you can often find affordable face-value seats at some WWE events.

Additionally, fans can consider looking for tickets on the second-hand market, with resale providers such as Stubhub also offering seats to plenty of the major events offered by the promotion.
FAQs
Getty ImagesWhat is the next WWE pay-per-view in 2024?
The next WWE pay-per-view after Backlash France in 2024 will be Backlash France, which is set to be held at LDLC Arena, located in the Decines-Charpieu area of Lyon, France, on Saturday, May 4.
It marks the promotion’s first visit to the nation for a Supercard event and forms the start of a mid-year stretch that will see flagship events and other pay-per-views held across multiple other countries over the coming months.
It marks the Supercard event’s return for the first time since 2015 and forms the latest part of WWE’s ten-year partnership with Saudi Arabia, having last visited for Crown Jewel in November.
Will The Rock return to WWE in 2024?
One of the surprise stories of 2024 in WWE has been the return of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to regular ring action after a lengthy absence. The wrestler-turned-actor and entrepreneur has become a box-office favorite since he starred in Fast Five more than a decade ago, headlining several bankable franchises.
However, the underperformance of his last starring role, Black Adam, has seen him return to his first love, with a sensational heel turn performance that saw him notch up an impressive victory at WrestleMania XL on night one in a tag-team match with Roman Reigns against Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins.
He subsequently defeated John Cena on night two before he was downed by The Undertaker, but his future remains a cloudier prospect. Johnson has hinted he will fight again in 2024, and he could well be a surprise contender at Backlash France in May.
Where do WWE events take place?
WWE events take place across a number of various locations, with the international appeal of the promotion seeing them increase their overseas footprint significantly across the past decade.
The majority of Supercard events and pay-per-view broadcasts are still held in North America, but several are set to take place abroad. The next three—Backlash France, King and Queen of the Ring, and Clash at the Castle—are set for France, Saudi Arabia, and Scotland, respectively.
In addition, RAW and SmackDown shows take place across the United States, Canada, and other nations, while house shows are also held domestically and internationally as part of the promotion’s touring market.
