WWE announced that Wrestlemania 38 was their most-attended and highest-grossing event in the company’s history.
WWE released a press release today to announce that 156,352 fans representing all 50 states and 53 nations attended AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX, for the two-night event. This attendance record surpasses the 2016 Wrestlemania 32 attendance record.
On behalf of our family and the entire Dallas Cowboys organization, we are ecstatic to have once again shattered records with WrestleMania at AT&T Stadium. Dallas Cowboys Chief Brand Officer Charlotte Jones in the press release said:
I’ve experienced first-hand WWE’s commitment to both its fans and host cities alike. We are so grateful for their partnership and desire to always overdeliver.
Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson said:
The city of Dallas would like to thank WWE for presenting an incredible WrestleMania week of events at both the American Airlines Center and the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center. The week provided an economic windfall for Dallas and proved once again that our city is a first-class host for major sporting events.
Arlington Mayor Jim Ross said:
The city of Arlington is extremely grateful to WWE for bringing back its biggest annual celebration. We look forward to the opportunity to top this record with a future WrestleMania at AT&T Stadium.
WWE Executive Vice President of Special Events John Saboor said:
We are thrilled that WrestleMania’s return to Dallas again generated record results, proving that everything is indeed bigger in Texas. We are grateful to the Jones Family and the entire Dallas Cowboys organization, the Dallas Sports Commission, the city of Arlington, the city of Dallas, and all the public and private sector partners who were instrumental in making WrestleMania 38 the most stupendous two-night WrestleMania in history. We now turn our attention to next year, where WrestleMania will take over Hollywood.
