WWE, in partnership with the Western Australian Government through Tourism Western

Australia, today announced a new three-year agreement that will see Perth host WWE Weekend Takeovers

featuring a Premium Live Event annually from 2026 through 2028, kicking off with Wrestlepalooza: Perth

on Saturday, December 12, 2026.

The first WWE Weekend Takeover under the new agreement will see RAC Arena host SmackDown® on

Friday, December 11, followed by Wrestlepalooza: Perth on Saturday, December 12, and Raw® on Monday,

December 14.

The announcement follows the blockbuster success of WWE’s inaugural Wrestlepalooza in 2025, headlined

by John Cena and Brock Lesnar, that kicked off WWE’s partnership with ESPN.

WWE's previous events in Perth, including Elimination Chamber: Perth® in 2024 and Crown Jewel:

Perth® in 2025, collectively attracted tens of thousands of visitors from outside Western Australia and

generated more than AUD $58 million for the state's economy.

In addition to the live events, Perth will also play host to a range of WWE fan experiences throughout the

city, including WWE Superstores, WWE Superstar meet-and-greets, community activities and more.

Three-event combo tickets for Wrestlepalooza: Perth, SmackDown and Raw will go on general sale

Thursday, September 10 at 10am AWST.

Fans can register their interest now ahead of a pre-sale on Wednesday, September 9 from 10am AWST
