WWE Elimination Chamber Set for Chicago
The Elimination Chamber event is confirmed to take place in Chicago on February 28, as reported by multiple sources, including the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. WWE has yet to officially verify the date and location. This marks the first occurrence of Elimination Chamber in the United States since 2021, when it was held at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida. Last year's event took place at Rogers Centre in Toronto.
The most recent WWE event in Illinois was a Smackdown on September 5 at Allstate Arena in Rosemont, which saw approximately 16,642 tickets distributed. The last premium live event (PLE) in Illinois was Survivor Series 2023, also at Allstate Arena, which achieved a gate of $2.2 million from 16,579 tickets sold and featured the notable return of CM Punk. For Survivor Series, a total of 17,102 tickets were distributed.
As of now, Elimination Chamber will be the second PLE on WWE's 2026 calendar, following the Royal Rumble scheduled for January 31 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
