WWE reveals combo ticket on-sale date for SummerSlam 2026

Though most of the focus is on WrestleMania week right now, WWE is already looking ahead to its biggest event of the summer.

The company has announced that two-day combo tickets for SummerSlam 2026 will go on sale to the general public on Friday, May 1 at 10 a.m. Central time. U.S Bank Stadium in Minneapolis is hosting the event on Saturday, August 1 and Sunday, August 2 — making this the second two-night SummerSlam in WWE history.

Before the general on-sale, there will be a ticket pre-sale on April 30. Chase Freedom cardholders will get access to an exclusive pre-sale one day prior to that on April 29.

WWE has not yet announced when single-night tickets are going on sale.

Tourism organization Minnesota Sports and Events is partnering with WWE for SummerSlam, with the organization calling this a “major moment” for the city of Minneapolis and the state of Minnesota.

“SummerSlam coming to U.S. Bank Stadium marks a major moment for Minneapolis and for our state as a whole,” said MNSE president and CEO Wendy Blackshaw. “This is a truly global event, and we’re excited to welcome fans from across the country and around the world while showcasing Minnesota as a premier destination for world-class sports and entertainment. We encourage fans to secure their tickets early for what will be an incredible weekend.”

Rumors have circulated for months regarding Brock Lesnar — who once called Minnesota home — potentially retiring at SummerSlam 2026. There’s been no confirmation of that, and Lesnar has not revealed his retirement timeline aside from saying he’s only back in WWE “for a short time.” The opening match of WrestleMania 42 night two this Sunday will see Lesnar face off against new WWE star Oba Femi.

School director accused of using embezzled funds for WWE VIP packages

A director of a New York City German immersion school was allegedly embezzling funds from the institution to finance a lavish lifestyle, including attending WWE events with exclusive VIP Passes.

A lawsuit was filed by the school and she could be looking at 20 years in prison. 

According to the New York Post, the director of Kinderhaus Brooklyn in Park Slope, Murielle Misczak, spent around $350,000 on WWE tickets, including exclusive meet-and-greet VIP Passes for herself and her children. She reportedly bragged about it on a few occasions on Instagram. 

A civil lawsuit was filed by the school for her lavish lifestyle which seemed beyond her means. She was allegedly renting two apartments in Park Slope whilst enjoying luxury first class trips almost every weekend. 

Federal authorities uncovered in addition to the WWE tickets and passes, Misczak was also allegedly extravagant with expenses on travel and luxury goods. This amounted to nearly $650,000 in total. 

The indictment also stated that she redirected a sum of $2.75 million, from the school’s tuition fees into her own bank account for ‘personal use’. These transactions took place between January 2022 to October 2025. And it was discovered by the school’s principal who brought the issue to light.

New York Post also reports that when she was questioned about the missing funds she claimed it to be from her wealthy mother in Switzerland. 

The pricing of WWE tickets for their weekly programs and Premium Live Events has been the subject of many discussions among the fanbase. For WrestleMania 42, ringside tickets are priced at approximately $9000 per head on Ticketmaster. Exclusive two-day packages with lodging, access to WWE World and more reaches the $30,000 mark.

WWE reveals ticket on-sale date for Royal Rumble
