Obscene Ticket Prices Announced For WWE WrestleMania 42 (WWE News)
WWE WrestleMania 42 will set you back at least $854... before fees.
As WWE continues to regularly celebrate record gates at various arenas and stadiums across the world, the ticket prices have now been revealed for WrestleMania 42.
First reported by PWInsider, the cheapest 'Mania 42 ticket will set you back a cool $854, before Ticketmaster fees. Those seats are on the upper levels of Las Vegas' Allegiant Stadium.
While $854 plus fees is the cheapest ticket price for next year's Showcase of the Immortals, those wanting to go all-out and explore the pricier options will find that the most expensive ticket is just shy of $9,000 before fees. To be precise, ringside floor seats cost as much as $8,998. Again, that is without any Ticketmaster fees, meaning those tickets will easily cost more than $9,000 by the time those fees are applied.
These prices came as part of WWE's new corporate ticket strategy under the TKO banner, with TKO Chief Operating Officer Mark Shapiro recently stating how Vince McMahon had previously priced WWE as an affordable, family-focused event, whereas the aim now is to "maxing the opportunity" to charge higher prices and bring in extra revenue - mirroring what has been done with WWE's sister company UFC in recent years.
TKO's broader strategy is to adjust ticket prices based on demand, even holding certain tickets back in order to sell them at a higher price closer to the date of an event. And, given those Shaprio comments, this is a strategy that isn't going to be changing any time soon, and if anything, will only be something that TKO pursues more aggressively.
