WWE announces first-ever 'Premium Live Event' in Paris with Clash in Paris

WWE's Clash in Paris set for 31 August at Paris La Défense Arena, marking the first-ever premium live event in France.

WWE will host a premium live event in Paris for the first time with Clash in Paris, set for Sunday, 31 August, at Paris La Défense Arena.

The venue, the largest indoor arena in Europe, has a listed capacity of 40,000.

The event will be followed by WWE Raw on Monday, 1 September, at the same location.

The announcement comes after the success of Backlash in Lyon last May, which drew 11,682 fans.

WWE president Nick Khan recently confirmed that another premium live event (PLE) would be held in France this year.

Pre-sale registration is open, with an official on-sale date yet to be announced.

TKO president Mark Shapiro previously indicated that WWE would continue expanding international events after hosting eight of 12 PLEs outside the United States in 2024.

So far, five PLEs have been announced for 2025, with Clash in Paris joining Elimination Chamber in Canada as the only international events confirmed to date.
