When next year’s WrestleMania 42 was moved from New Orleans to Las Vegas, the Big Easy got a consolation prize in the form of Money in the Bank 2026. In announcing that news, WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque said next year’s climbs for briefcases would happen on Sat., Aug. 29, 2026.
But in officially announcing the next Money in the Bank along with pre-sale registration information, WWE now has the premium live event happening one week later, on Sun., Sept. 6, the day before the Labor
Day holiday here in the United States.
Here’s that announcement:
WWE, in conjunction with the Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation and Legends Global, has announced that Money in the Bank will now take place Sunday, Sept. 6, 2026 — one week later than originally announced — at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans.
Money in the Bank features WWE’s biggest Superstars as they battle to earn a briefcase containing a contract for a championship match at a time and place of their choosing anytime within the next year.
Additional ticket details and event information will be announced in the coming months. To register to be the first to hear about pre-sale opportunities for Money in the Bank, visit wwe.com/mitb-2026.
Official Money in the Bank Priority Passes will soon be available through exclusive partner On Location, offering fans premium seating, hospitality events featuring Superstar appearances, exclusive photo opportunities and more. Fans can now place a deposit to secure access before the general public. To learn more about Money in the Bank Priority Passes or to place a deposit, please visit onlocationexp.com/mitb.
And because it’s never too early for me to start thinking about event coverage, I’ll tell you that this move means Money in the Bank and All Out 2026 will now not be the same weekend. AEW’s return to London’s Wembley Stadium is set for Sun., Aug. 30.
