The next installment of WWE’s Saturday Night’s Main Event is officially set for November 1, emanating from the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. The show marks a historic first for the state, which has never before hosted a PLE-level event.
The confirmation, first reported by FOX 13 Utah, is the result of a new agreement between Smith Entertainment Group and the Utah Sports Commission. The partnership aims to bring more TKO-branded events, including WWE and UFC, to the region.

The special will cap off a major WWE weekend at the venue. A Halloween edition of Friday Night SmackDown is also scheduled for the Delta Center on Friday, October 31.
In a statement, Chris Barney of Smith Entertainment Group commented on the announcement. “We are thrilled that live WWE entertainment and UFC action will return to Utah,” Barney said. “Every TKO event Delta Center has hosted has captivated fans and brought people from across the country into Salt Lake City, creating opportunities to showcase Utah’s world class sports and entertainment landscape.”
This event will also be part of a new broadcast strategy for the series. It was recently reported that the quarterly Saturday Night’s Main Event specials are now set to air exclusively on Peacock as part of a new multi-year agreement.
