ROYAL RUMBLE RIYADH: WWE constructing its own outdoor arena for 2026 Royal Rumble in Riyadh


Posted on 1/05/126 by Colin Vassallo



The 2026 Royal Rumble will be held at a location in Riyadh
specifically built for the premium live event, as images
published online show that construction has started.

A specific location was never announced for the Rumble and
it was only listed as taking place at the King Abdullah
Financial District.

Rather than using any of the stadiums or arenas nearby which
WWE has already used in the past for Saudi PLEs, it was
decided to build from scratch a large arena similar to what
the company did at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas for
WrestleMania IX in 1993.

The seating chart contains 39 sections with an estimated
seating capacity of 20,000 to 25,000. There will be no seats
behind the stage area as the design is in the shape of a U.

When tickets went on sale, over 800,000 people were in line
on the Webook.com website looking for tickets.
