Wrestlemania 38 is literally going to be the biggest ‘Mania ever, going by the numbers. Back at Wrestlemania 32, WWE hosted the show from the very same AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas, and made a record by bringing in more than 100,000 people on that night. To date, that show holds the record of capacitating the biggest number for a WWE event.
With Wrestlemania 38 scheduled to roll through two separate nights, it’s certain that WWE wants to break the previous record from that same venue. However, they had to work on a lot of things to sell the stadium out for two consecutive nights. Less than a month is available as we head into the show and WWE has yet to sell out the Show of Shows. There have been talks of the company dealing with some issues to move the tickets.

As noted, WrestleMania 38 will take place at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, a venue that has a seating capacity of 80,000 but it can be reconfigured in a way so that 100,000 audiences can be arranged.
Going by the recent reports, WWE has reportedly sold 47,000 tickets and 50,000 for Night 1 and 2 of the show. The company should announce the numbers, the headcount during the event proceedings as they always do for their TV programming.

Wrestlemania 38: WWE still struggling to sell out the show
WWE is obviously looking forward to increasing ticket revenue across the board as their sales department had noticed a decline in ticket sales since the promotion returned to live events in the aftermath of the coronavirus pandemic. That being said, the only they have left to try is to confirm some more major names for Wrestlemania 38.
Apart from the Wrestlemania 38 trying, WWE is also pulling all the stops to sell out the next Madison Square Garden event. With less than 4,000 tickets out for their March 5 live event at the World’s Most Famous arena, Dave Meltzer noted on Wrestling Observer Newsletter that there’s been a push to move tickets,
“Even with the big lineup they at press time were only at 3,979 but no doubt they’ll start discounting tickets soon. Keep in mind due to business partnerships in New York and such that WWE will have more comp tickets for MSG in general than any other arena and even AEW had 2,000 business trades in New York and WWE historically was around 3,000 even up to a few years ago.”
