WWE Crown Jewel 2026 is set to take place at a new venue in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, following a last-minute change announced just days before the event. Riyadh Season earlier confirmed the move but did not reveal the new location. Now, a new report has revealed where the PLE will be held.

On October 28, Riyadh Season announced that Crown Jewel would no longer take place at its originally planned venue. Organizers confirmed that the show would remain in Riyadh and that everyone who had already purchased tickets would receive a full refund.

The timing of the decision raised more questions about WWE’s plans, especially given the security concerns in the region.

WWE Crown Jewel 2026 reportedly has a new Riyadh location ahead of November 7

According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, Crown Jewel will take place at Kingdom Arena. The show was originally scheduled for Riyadh Season Stadium, but the reason for the change remains unclear.

The venue is already familiar to WWE fans, as it has hosted several major events, including Night of Champions in June 2026. With room for around 30,000 people, it can accommodate another major WWE show in Saudi Arabia.

WWE has not yet explained the reason behind the location change. However, if Kingdom Arena has been finalized as reported, one of the biggest questions surrounding the event may now have an answer.

Crown Jewel is still scheduled for Saturday, November 7. New tickets are expected to go on sale after fans who purchased tickets for the original venue receive full refunds.

The venue change reportedly came as a surprise to some employees at WWE headquarters.

According to another report, several WWE employees learned about the move when Riyadh Season announced it on social media. The report suggests not everyone at WWE had been informed internally before the news became public.

Before Meltzer’s report, The Venue, also known as ANB Arena, had been mentioned as a possible replacement. However, that speculation is separate from the report naming Kingdom Arena as the new location.

The two venues are different, and the Canelo Alvarez vs. Christian Mbilli boxing event scheduled for October 31 will take place at ANB Arena, not Kingdom Arena.
