WrestleMania 42, also promoted as WrestleMania Vegas, is an upcoming 2026 professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming event produced by WWE. It will be the 42nd annual WrestleMania and will take place as a two-night event on Saturday, April 18 and Sunday, April 19, 2026, at Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada, held for wrestlers from the promotion's Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. WWE legend John Cena will host the event.

Initially set to take place at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana on April 11 and 12, WrestleMania 42 was relocated back to the Las Vegas Valley and pushed back a week due to the financial success of 2025's WrestleMania 41, with Las Vegas offering a higher bid to again host the event. This will be the third WrestleMania in the Las Vegas area, including WrestleMania IX in 1993, and the second consecutive held at the venue, marking only the second time WrestleMania will be held at the same venue in consecutive years. This will be the first WrestleMania to livestream on the ESPN streaming service in the United States and the first WrestleMania to air live on ESPN's linear channels, as the first hour of each night will also air on ESPN2 and ESPN, respectively.
