WWE issued the following press release on Tuesday to announce that the Clash at the Castle event will be held on Saturday, June 15 in Glasgow, Scotland at OVO Hydro Glasgow.
STAMFORD, Conn., April 2, 2024 – WWE®, part of TKO Group Holdings (NYSE: TKO), today announced that Glasgow will host Friday Night SmackDown on Friday, June 14, followed by Clash At the Castle: Scotland, the first-ever WWE Premium Live Event to be held in Scotland, on Saturday, June 15 at the OVO Hydro.

“We are excited to bring both Friday Night SmackDown and Clash At The Castle: Scotland to our amazing fans in Scotland at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow this June,” said WWE President Nick Khan. “The world will see that this is one of the UK’s best venues and Scottish crowds are some of the loudest, craziest and most passionate on the planet.”
The announcement follows the record-setting Clash At the Castle which took place at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, in September 2022. At the time, the event became the most-viewed and highest-rated international Premium Live Event in company history.
Scotland is home to several WWE Superstars including Drew McIntyre, Alba Fyre, Isla Dawn, Piper Niven, Nikki Cross, Joe Coffey, Mark Coffey, Wolfgang and Noam Dar.
Additionally, Priority Pass ticket packages will soon be available from On Location, offering fans the chance to be ringside for every exhilarating moment including premium seating, pre-show hospitality with WWE Superstar appearances, ringside photo opportunities, exclusive merchandise and more. Starting today at 11.00 a.m. BST, fans can place a deposit to secure access ahead of the general public.
More information on ticket availability will be announced in the coming days. To learn more please visit www.wwe.com.
Powell’s POV: The event graphic features Cody Rhodes, Drew McIntyre, Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill, and Jey Uso. McIntyre has stated publicly that he has yet to re-sign with the WWE, but it looks like the company is quite confident that he will be staying.
Obviously the 10k plus free tickets they gave away last year at clash only to still manage 62k in a 75k stadium made them downsize. Funny
There was already a smackdown scheduled in Tulsa OK on the 14th. Any word on what they are doing with that?
The Tulsa event was rescheduled for Friday, August 9, according to one of the area’s news stations.
