Highest WrestleMania attendance of all time

WWE WrestleMania is the flagship Premium Live Event of the pro-wrestling promotion WWE. It is the first Pay Per View event ever organised by the promotion and is currently the longest-running PPV in the history of the promotion. The event was first conducted way back in 1985. It is said that it was a huge gamble by Vince McMahon who invested his everything in the event in the hopes to nationalise WWE. There is no doubt in confirming that he succeeded in his attempts.

Ever since its introduction, WrestleMania has come to become the annual festival among the fans. It is often dubbed “The Super Bowl of Wrestling” and rightly so. Every year, fans come in huge numbers to celebrate the day and create new attendance records. As almost every WrestleMania is completely packed with spectators, fans often wonder as to which of these editions had a crowd unmatched by others. Scroll down to find out the answer to this question.

Which WrestleMania has the highest attendance?

There is no single answer to that question. Firstly, if we talk about which WrestleMania event has the highest attendance of all time, the answer will be WrestleMania 38 (2022). It was a two-night event.

77,899 people were present at Night One which was headlined by Stone Cold Steve Austin and Kevin Owens while 78,453 fans made their way to Night Two, where the main event was Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar. This leads to a total attendance of 156,352.

However, if the question is about the attendance record on a single WrestleMania night, then the record stays with WrestleMania 32 (2016). A total of 101,763 fans entered the AT&T Stadium in Texas to witness the event which was headlined by Roman Reigns and Triple H.
