AEW Dynamite Maximum Carnage 2026 Tickets: Has the show sold out?
As All Elite Wrestling (AEW) gears up for its first major thematic event of the year, fans are asking the crucial question: has AEW Dynamite Maximum Carnage sold out? The short answer is no, but with only three days remaining until the doors open at the Arizona Financial Theatre in Phoenix, AZ, availability is shrinking rapidly. According to the latest data from WrestleTix, the event is seeing a significant late surge in interest.
Current Ticket Status
As of today, Monday, 12 January 2026, the demand for Maximum Carnage is high. Below is a breakdown of the current seating situation for the Wednesday night broadcast:
| Metric | Current Figures |
| Tickets Distributed | 2,569 |
| Available Tickets | 566 |
| Current Setup | 3,135 |
| Total Seats on Map | 4,603 |
With 2,569 tickets already in the hands of fans, the venue is currently set up for 3,135 attendees. However, the theatre has a total capacity of over 4,600, meaning AEW has the flexibility to open more sections if the current momentum continues.
Momentum and Market Comparison
The show has seen a notable boost in sales recently, with +208 tickets moved in the last 48 hours alone. This late-week interest is likely driven by the final “go-home” hype and the confirmation of a massive main event.
Comparatively, the Phoenix market remains a solid stop for the promotion. On 19 February 2025, the previous Dynamite at this venue drew 2,933 fans. While the current distribution of 2,569 is slightly behind that mark, the year-to-date show average for 2026 currently sits at 2,951, suggesting that Maximum Carnage is on track to meet or exceed expectations once walk-up sales are accounted for.
Pricing and Resale Information
For those looking for a bargain, tickets remain relatively affordable despite the proximity to the event:
- Cheapest Standard Admission: $34.25
- Resale Market: There are currently only 59 tickets available on the secondary market, indicating that those who have bought tickets are largely planning to attend rather than flip them.
The show is not yet sold out, but with 566 tickets remaining and a momentum of over 100 sales per day, the “House Full” sign could very well be hung before the 5:30 PM MST start time this Wednesday.
