AEW announces All In next year will move from Wembley to a U.S. outdoor stadium in Texas, switches to a new month

By Wade Keller, PWTorch editor


SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)...

AEW will not be returning to Wembley Stadium in London, England for next year’s All In, as it’s moving to Texas. The Globe Life Field in Arlington, Tex., with a capacity of 40,000, will host All In in 2025. The stadium is the home of the Texas Rangers, a Major League Baseball team. It’s the first time that stadium has hosted a pro wrestling event.

It also moves from August to mid-July, which spreads out the time between All In and All Out, assuming All Out takes place at the end of August or early September as usual.

“On behalf of everyone at AEW, we are ecstatic to bring AEW: All In Texas to Globe Life Field in  Arlington on July 12, 2025,” said Tony Khan. “AEW: All in Texas will make history as both our  first-ever pay-per-view in Texas as well as AEW’s American stadium debut, building on the rich  legacy of stadium wrestling events held in the US, particularly in the Lone Star State.”

Globe Life Field has a retractable roof, so there’s a guarantee it won’t be hampered by bad weather.

By announcing this now, it could conceivably help ticket sales for Wembley this year as some fans who went last night might’ve decided it wasn’t affordable or desirable to attend every year, but if next week’s event is the last time at Wembley for more than a year, it might spark some extra ticket purchases.

AEW has said they will return to Wembley for All In in 2026.

The full press release follows below…
