WrestleMania 41 wasn’t just a two-night spectacle for fans—it was a massive financial commitment from WWE and its partners.
TKO Group Holdings disclosed that the total production cost for WrestleMania 41 and its related events was $33.7 million. That figure covered Raw, SmackDown, NXT Stand & Deliver, and additional appearances during WrestleMania Week. Among the breakdowns: $2.4 million went to stagehands, $1.2 million for set builds, over $350,000 for catering, and $276,000 for pyrotechnics.
To help offset costs, WWE was awarded up to $4.24 million in tax credits by the Nevada Governor’s Office of Economic Development. Additionally, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority backed the event with a $5 million sponsorship, marking a significant commitment from the city to bring WrestleMania to Allegiant Stadium.
The event drew fans worldwide, with early estimates projecting an economic impact of $215 million for Las Vegas. While WWE hasn’t publicly disclosed what it paid to lease Allegiant Stadium, these numbers reflect the investment and return the company and the city were counting on.
