Triplemanía 33 (Arena CDMX, August 2025) drew 19,691 attendees and was cited as AAA’s highest-grossing and most-viewed Triplemanía to date.
AAA is moving Night 1 of Triplemanía 34 from the Luxor Hotel & Casino to the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas due to what the promotion is calling "unprecedented demand," according to Wrestling Inc. The date stays the same: Friday, September 11. But the venue upgrade is massive — capacity jumps from roughly 1,533 seats at the Luxor to about 17,000 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, a more-than-tenfold increase.
The Las Vegas show is one half of a historic two-night, two-country event. Night 2 heads to Mexico City on September 13, making this the first-ever Triplemanía held across two countries in the same weekend, Fox5 Vegas reports.
From Small Theater to Arena: How Big the Jump Is
The Luxor was set to host the show in a theater-style venue with around 1,533 seats. The MGM Grand Garden Arena holds close to 17,000. That is not a small upgrade — it is a completely different scale of event, according to Wrestling Noticias.
Fans who already bought tickets through the Luxor will get updates about their orders. New tickets go on sale through AXS. An exclusive WWE presale kicks off August 3 at 10:00 a.m. PT. General on-sale follows August 4 at 10:00 a.m. PT, PWMania reports.
AAA Lands in the Heart of WWE's Vegas Weekend
The timing puts AAA squarely inside a WWE-owned weekend at the same venue. WWE's SmackDown is scheduled for September 11 — the same night as Triplemanía — and RAW runs at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on September 14, according to TPWW.
That makes the MGM Grand a hub for pro wrestling over that stretch. AAA and WWE have been building a closer relationship, and this venue share is the clearest sign yet of how deep that partnership runs.
Triplemanía 33 Set the Bar — Now 34 Aims Higher
AAA is pointing to Triplemanía 33 as proof of the event's growth. That show, held at Arena CDMX in August 2025, drew 19,691 fans. AAA called it the highest-grossing and most-viewed Triplemanía ever, Fox5 Vegas reported.
That momentum is clearly fueling demand for the Las Vegas show. The fact that the Luxor sold out fast enough to force a venue change signals that Lucha Libre is pulling a bigger U.S. audience than ever before.
Star-Packed Lineup Still Being Built Out
The confirmed lineup already includes major names on both sides of the border. Rey Mysterio and his son Dominik Mysterio are set to appear. So are Hijo del Vikingo, Psycho Clown, La Catalina, and Rey Fenix, PWMania reports. More names are still to be announced.
With a 17,000-seat arena to fill and a stacked card in the works, AAA's U.S. expansion is entering new territory. The September 11 show will be the biggest stage the promotion has ever had on American soil.
