WWE is heading back to Hawaii for the first time in seven years, and the company is bringing several major names along for the trip. The October 16 live event at Blaisdell Arena in Honolulu will also include a WWE talent tryout before the show.
WWE announced that the Honolulu stop will be part of its 2026 Live Event Tour and will mark the company’s first event in Hawaii since September 22, 2019.
“WWE has announced its long-awaited return to Hawaii on Friday, Oct. 16, at Blaisdell Arena in Honolulu as part of WWE’s 2026 Live Event Tour. This marks the first WWE live event to be held in Hawaii since 2019.”
Seth Rollins, The Usos, Jacob Fatu, Oba Femi and Liv Morgan are currently advertised for the event, with more names expected to be added as the date gets closer. Tickets will go on sale to the public on Friday, August 14, at 10 a.m. HST through Ticketmaster. Fans will also have access to an exclusive presale beginning Wednesday, August 12, at 10 a.m. HST.
WWE is also using the Hawaii trip to search for its next potential star. Before the live event, prospective talent will be allowed to perform in front of company recruiters, coaches and executives during a tryout at Blaisdell Arena.
“Prior to the live event, WWE will host a tryout at Blaisdell Arena, providing prospective talent the opportunity to showcase their abilities in front of WWE recruiters, coaches and executives. Additional details on the event will be announced in the coming weeks.”
The Hawaii date comes one month after WWE’s planned tour of South America in September, giving the company another major stop outside the continental United States. WWE stayed away from Hawaii for seven years, but that drought will officially end in October with a live event, a loaded group of advertised stars and a tryout that could uncover future talent.
