WrestleMania XXIV is the forthcoming twenty-fourth annual WrestleMania professional wrestling pay-per-view produced by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). It is scheduled to take place on March 30, 2008 at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Florida. The event will be the first WrestleMania to be held in the state of Florida.
It will also be the second WrestleMania to be held entirely outdoors, the only other having been WrestleMania IX. WWE and the city of Orlando plan to host festivities that will span over a five-day period within the central Florida region, bringing numerous branding opportunities and television coverage, leading up to the event at the Citrus Bowl. Despite the risks of an outdoor show, WWE chairman Vince McMahon has announced that the “show will go on, regardless of the weather.” The Central Florida Sports Commission estimate WrestleMania XXIV will pump $25 million into the local economy while creating numerous jobs, and bring around 60,000 visitors to the city for the event.
