As WWE prepares for WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas this April, attention is already turning to the host city for WrestleMania 42 in 2026. Recent reports suggest that New Orleans has emerged as the leading candidate to host WWE’s flagship event.

New Orleans as the Frontrunner

According to PWInsider, WWE sources have indicated that New Orleans is the frontrunner to host WrestleMania 42. This information has been circulating among WWE insiders for the past month and is gaining momentum within Louisiana.

Potential Announcement During Super Bowl Weekend

Speculation about New Orleans hosting WrestleMania 42 intensified following reports of a planned WrestleMania press event in the city during Super Bowl weekend. WWE employed a similar strategy last year in Las Vegas before officially announcing it as the host city for WrestleMania 41.

Indianapolis Considered for WrestleMania 43

In addition to New Orleans, Indianapolis is reportedly under consideration to host WrestleMania 43 in 2027. This aligns with WWE’s approach of selecting host cities well in advance to facilitate comprehensive planning and promotion.

New Orleans’ WrestleMania Legacy

New Orleans has a storied history with WrestleMania, having previously hosted the event in 2014 and 2018. Both instances were met with critical acclaim and strong attendance figures, showcasing the city’s capacity to deliver a memorable experience for fans and participants alike.

Awaiting Official Confirmation

While these reports provide insight into potential plans, it’s important to note that WWE has not officially confirmed New Orleans as the host city for WrestleMania 42. Fans and industry insiders eagerly await an official announcement, which may coincide with the upcoming press event during Super Bowl weekend.
