WWE’s summer calendar is shaping up to be a strong one at the box office, with updated ticket sales figures now available for a stretch of events running from early July through mid-August 2026.
Headlining the numbers is SummerSlam in Minneapolis, which is already posting massive advance sales. Night One on August 1 has moved 23,672 tickets, while Night Two on August 2 sits at 23,227 — both figures well north of the 23,000 mark and a clear indicator that the two-night Premium Live Event format continues to draw. Saturday Night’s Main Event at Madison Square Garden on July 18 is also performing well, with 7,519 tickets sold ahead of what figures to be a high-profile show at one of the most iconic venues in sports entertainment.
Among the weekly television tapings, the RAW stop in Inglewood, California on July 27 leads the way with 7,428 tickets sold, followed closely by the July 6 Chicago RAW at 6,802 and the July 13 Dallas RAW at 6,408. SmackDown numbers are more modest across the board, with Oakland (July 24) leading that brand’s tapings at 4,775, and Albany (July 17) and Philadelphia (August 7) posting 3,966 and 4,721 respectively. Oklahoma City’s July 10 SmackDown sits at 3,493.
On the live event side, Las Cruces, New Mexico drew 4,478 for its July 11 show — the strongest non-TV house show number in the report. Allentown (July 16) came in at 3,550, while Springfield, Illinois on July 30 recorded 2,776 tickets sold.
The final entry in the report, an August 10 RAW in Norfolk, Virginia, has sold 3,690 tickets. With SummerSlam as the clear centerpiece of WWE’s summer, the company appears well-positioned for a strong run through the season’s most important stretch on the calendar.
