AEW Unveils New Dates: Hammerstein Ballroom Debut and Revolution 2025 in Los Angeles

AEW has revealed an exciting new slate of event dates, including the promotion’s debut at New York City's iconic Hammerstein Ballroom.

The Hammerstein Ballroom will host three consecutive days of action from Friday, December 20 through Sunday, December 22. The festivities kick off on December 20 with Ring of Honor's Final Battle, followed by AEW Collision on Saturday and a special taping of AEW Dynamite on Sunday.

These events are expected to feature Christmas-themed episodes, as AEW recently filed trademarks for “Christmas Collision” and “Dynamite on 34th Street,” the latter referencing the venue's location on 34th Street in Manhattan.

The Hammerstein Ballroom has a storied history in professional wrestling, dating back to its days hosting ECW events, and has welcomed ROH shows in the past. This will be AEW's first show at the venue under Tony Khan's leadership.

Tickets for all three events at Hammerstein go on sale Monday, November 25.

Additionally, AEW announced that AEW Revolution 2025 will take place at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday, March 9. This marks AEW’s first event at the former Staples Center, with AEW previously holding major events at The Forum in Inglewood. The Crypto.com Arena is the home of the NBA's Los Angeles Lakers.

Another highlight on the schedule is the Fight for the Fallen episode of Dynamite on New Year’s Day 2025. This special episode will not only mark the launch of Dynamite and Collision streaming live on Max but will also raise funds for victims of Hurricane Helene in Asheville, North Carolina, which was severely impacted in September.
