AEW reveals Full Gear 2026 date and location
Another piece of AEW’s 2026 pay-per-view schedule has been revealed with the promotion heading west for Full Gear.
Full Gear 2026 will be held in Phoenix, Arizona at the Mortgage Matchup Center on Saturday, November 14. The announcement of the event was made by The Arizona Republic, with Tony Khan expressing how excited he is to return to Arizona after Glendale hosted Double or Nothing in 2025.
“It was voted the best wrestling show of the year, 2025. Double or Nothing 2025 was voted the best wrestling show of the year worldwide by Sports Illustrated, and a number of the top publications picked Double or Nothing in Arizona as the best wrestling event of the year last year,” Khan said. “And AEW is even better in 2026. We’re having an even bigger and better year in 2026. So it’s perfect that we’re coming back.”
The general public ticket on-sale date for Full Gear is Monday, July 27 at 12 p.m. Eastern/10 a.m. Mountain time. AEW’s VIP pre-sale begins on July 21, with the regular pre-sale then lasting from July 23-26.
Three of the past four years, Full Gear took place from Newark, New Jersey. The PPV has been an annual fixture of the AEW calendar since the promotion’s inaugural year of 2019.
Mortgage Matchup Center is an arena that is home to the NBA’s Phoenix Suns and WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury.
With this announcement, we now have AEW PPVs set for July, August, September, and November.
