It looks like WWE’s late push to fill Allegiant Stadium is working—because WrestleMania 41 Saturday just got a massive bump in ticket sales.

According to WrestleTix, hours before the April 19 show kicks off in Las Vegas, WWE has distributed 55,976 tickets for Night One of WrestleMania. The current setup inside Allegiant allows for 57,224 seats, leaving just 1,248 tickets still available.

WrestleTix posted their morning update just after 9AM local time and noted the spike: “+4,509 since the last update.” That means thousands of fans jumped on seats overnight—likely taking advantage of recent price drops across the board.

Earlier this week, MORE on FOX5 Las Vegas reported that WrestleMania tickets had dropped by “about 25% in price from this time last week.” WWE has been aggressively trying to close the gap ahead of the event, especially after increasing capacity with Configuration Two.

The sellout push seems to be focused on maximizing the energy in the stadium while still prioritizing revenue. Night Two is reportedly ahead, with more than 52,000 already claimed. But this sudden jump for Saturday proves the strategy to open more sections and trim prices might pay off.

With only a few hours left, will WWE fully close the gap and hit their target? Or is this the ceiling for this year’s Las Vegas crowd?
