WWE World is the central hub for the week's events, with tons of experiences and opportunities for fans to take part in.

Superstar row will be filled with various WWE talent over the course of the week, conducting meet and greets and photo ops. Other superstars will be interviewed live and fans can sit in the audience for that.

Fusion Ink Empire will be there doing tattoos for fans, who can also compete in games like the Netflix Chair Shot (in which you swing a chair at a wrestling dummy and score more points the harder you hit), create signs for WrestleMania, call a real WWE match and get the recording, check out pieces of history like the Heartbreak Hotel and the real cages from Wargames or fire up WWE 2K25 in the 2k gaming lounge.

On top of all that, fans can participate in the WWE Superstar Entrance Experience, which allows anyone to walk that aisle just like their favorite wrestler.

The WrestleMania Superstore will also be at WWE World, giving fans access to exclusive memorabilia, apparel and merchandise. Topps will be present with the latest WWE trading cards and Beckett Authentication representatives will be there to grade cards.

WrestleMania: Dates, Start Time & How to Watch

WrestleMania 41 is on track to be the biggest show in WWE history. A roster so stacked with talent that three of the biggest stars in the world (CM Punk, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns) aren't even in the world championship picture.

Meanwhile, John Cena is competing in his final WrestleMania before retirement, aiming to win a record-breaking 17th world title. On top of that, The Rock might be involved again.

So you're not going to want to miss a second of the show, which takes place over the course of two nights in Las Vegas.
