WWE has officially confirmed that the 2020 Royal Rumble pay-per-view will take place at Minute Maid Park in Houston, TX on Sunday, January 26th.
The supersized venue is the home of MLB’s Houston Astros, marking the second year in a row that WWE will run their second biggest annual event at a baseball field. This year’s show took place at the Arizona Diamondback’s Chase Field in Phoenix.
The capacity of Minute Maid Park is technically a little over 41,000 but that number is for baseball games and therefor does not include seating on the field. That number could be closer to 50,000 but will largely depend on blacked out areas and how much space the set and ringside area takes up.
