WWE has announced 10 new live events across the United States as part of its 2026 Summer Tour, running from July 11 through August 30, with tickets expected to be priced more affordably than standard WWE events.
The shows run on Thursdays and weekends, with stops in Las Cruces and Albuquerque, New Mexico; Allentown, Pennsylvania; Stockton, California; Fairfax, Virginia; Manchester, New Hampshire; Savannah, Georgia; and Charleston, South Carolina. Cody Rhodes, Oba Femi, Rhea Ripley, Seth Rollins, Jade Cargill, Trick Williams, and Drew McIntyre are all advertised.
The decision was driven in part by the influx of younger talent on the roster, with WWE viewing non-televised events as a way for newer stars to build experience away from the cameras. Presale tickets go on sale May 19.
Rhodes, who holds the Undisputed WWE Championship, has been among the most vocal advocates for bringing back house shows. He pitched the idea directly to WWE’s top brass earlier this year on his podcast What Do You Wanna Talk About?
“I had suggested to some of the top brass in the company for a myriad of reasons: Camaraderie, the reps, the general sense of working here. It’s hard to think you work somewhere if you’re only there a couple of days a week, right? I had suggested to them, I said, ‘Run one weekend a month.'”
