Wrestling’s biggest event will take place in the home of the Dallas Cowboys in 2016.
WrestleMania 32 will be held at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas on April 3, 2016, the WWE and Cowboys said Tuesday.
AT&T Stadium can hold more than 100,000 people. The Cowboys averaged about 90,000 fans per home game this season, per ESPN figures.
This will mark the 12th time the WWE has held WrestleMania in an NFL club’s home stadium, past or present. The 2015 edition of WrestleMania will be held at Levi’s Stadium on March 29.
