AEW Dynamite Breaks 2026 Ticket Sales Record

All Elite Wrestling established a new ticket sales record for the 2026 calendar year during the April 29 episode of AEW Dynamite.

The event, held at the Eagle Bank Arena in Fairfax, Virginia, saw 5,283 tickets distributed just hours before the show began, according to data from Wrestletix.

This attendance figure surpasses the previous high for Dynamite in 2026, which was set on April 1 during a combined Dynamite and Collision event at the Canada Life Centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, where 4,554 tickets were distributed.

The Fairfax event also outperformed another notable 2026 gathering in Orlando, which recorded 4,153 tickets distributed.

Beyond the current year’s records, the April 29 show marks the most successful ticket distribution for a Dynamite event within the United States since September 2024. During that period, the Grand Slam Dynamite at Arthur Ashe Stadium reported an attendance of between 8,000 and 8,834 fans.

The card for the record-breaking event in Virginia featured four major title matches.

Here’s the highest Dynamite total of 2026, surpassing Winnipeg (4,554) and Orlando (4,153), and their best U.S. Number (for a Dynamite) since Grand Slam: Dynamite at Arthur Ashe Stadium in September 2024
