WWE Reporting Looking To Have Largest Crowd At US Event Since The Pandemic
March 14, 2021WWE looks to get ambitious with Mania.
WrestleMania 37 comes to us o April 9th and 10 from Raymond James Stadium in Tampa. We know WWE will have fans at the even both nights with tickets going on sale this Tuesday. Now it looks like WWE is looking to have more fans than any US event since the pandemic shut everything down.
First reported by Dave Meltzer in the latest Wrestling Observer, Meltzer reported that the current plan is to get 45,000 fans inside Raymond James each night. When the Super Bowl ran last month in the same stadium had 25,000 and 7,000 being vaccinated front-line workers. Mor than that, the Daytona 500 a week after the Super Bowl also in Florida ha between 25,000-30,000 fins in attendance for the NASCAR Cup Series 2021 season open. WWE looks to surpass that.
Jon Alba of Spectrum Sports has also reported this number as well confirming WWE is looking to get 45,000 fans per night. Alba stated that he thinks WWE could sell out the event but was unsure if 45,000 fans will actually be in attendance as a good portion of the tickets could be bought by scalpers for resale.
I can independently confirm reports #WWE is aiming for about 45,000 people per night at Raymond James Stadium for #WrestleMania, which would be by far the largest crowd at a sports or entertainment event in America since the pandemic began. @BN9 @MyNews13

Remember: just because #WWE WANTS 45,000 each night doesn’t mean it will get it. No international travel makes it hard.
I suspect it will sell out, but will 45,000-80,000 people travel to Florida? Perhaps, but I expect many tickets will hit resale market for WrestleMania.
