2024/25 WWE Event Dates
Unlike many sports, there is no official WWE "season", and events take place all year round. However, many fans argue that the annual WWE calendar begins the night after WrestleMania on Monday Night Raw, and concludes with the following year’s WrestleMania. With this in mind, the 2024/25 WWE "season" began in Philadelphia on the 8 April episode of Raw, and will come to an end at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas on 19–20 April 2025.
2024/25 WWE Premium Live Events
Formerly known as Pay-Per-Views (PPVs), WWE’s Premium Live Events (PLEs) are the company’s most highly anticipated shows. PLEs take place around once a month and feature top title clashes and grudge matches involving WWE’s biggest stars. A select group of PLEs is known as the “Big 5”. While all PLEs are sell-out events, the Big 5 are by far the most popular, and have become famous for delivering historic matches and iconic moments in front of crowds of up to 80,000.
WWE’s current PLE schedule for 2024/25 is as follows (Big 5 in bold):
- Backlash France · LDLC Arena, Lyon, France · 4 May
- King and Queen of the Ring · Jeddah Super Dome, Saudi Arabia · 25 May

2024/25 WWE Road to WrestleMania
The Road to WrestleMania is a key part of the year for WWE as the company builds towards its biggest show – WrestleMania. Taking place between January and April, the Road to WrestleMania begins with the Royal Rumble and usually features some of the year’s best feuds and storylines, which eventually culminate at the “Showcase of the Immortals” in April. Alongside standard weekly TV recordings, and a PLE in February (usually Elimination Chamber), WWE generally plans a tour of house shows during this period to help generate even more excitement.
