To Infinity and Beyond! WWE's SummerSlam Ticket Pricing Soars image

Just a year after the most expensive ticket for the then one-day SummerSlam could be purchased for $10,095, pricing for the 2025 edition of WWE’s second biggest card of the year was revealed that left fans of the promotion in astonishment. The “Elite Plus” front row seats were reported by Andrew Baydala this week to cost $40,000 each.

While these tickets are for both nights and come with a bevy of exclusive benefits, the move continues the trend of price escalation by World Wrestling Entertainment for their premium live events (PLEs). The cost of front-row seats for WrestleMania 41 for two nights achieved publicity for selling for $50,000. While not quite as costly, the SummerSlam front row tickets represented year-over-year growth even when accounting for the event taking place over two nights for the first time.

Despite the increase, the fact that the Elite Plus tickets have already sold out proces that WWE has yet to hit a ceiling in their fans willingness to pay for premium experiences.
