Cardiff’s Principality Stadium is set to host the first major WWE wrestling event in the UK in 30 years this autumn, it has been announced.
The event will be held at the 74,500-capacity venue on Saturday, September 3.
John Porco, WWE Live Events Senior Vice President, said: “Principality Stadium is the perfect place for a major event, hosting our amazing fans from Wales, throughout all of Europe, and around the world.
“The weekend will be filled with a variety of WWE experiences that we believe will leave a lasting memory, on par with SummerSlam at Wembley Stadium in 1992.”
Wales’ Economy Minister, Vaughan Gething MS, said Wales will “provide an iconic location” for WWE and described it as a chance to “showcase our country to a global audience of millions, including extended reach in the USA”.
Information regarding the event and ticket sales will be available at a later date.
