WWE Announces 2027 Road To Royal Rumble European Tour Dates

ByMike ReichlinProfessional Wrestling Journalist

WWE has announced the 2027 Road to Royal Rumble European Tour, an eight-event run across seven countries that opens in Brussels on Friday, January 15 and closes in Dublin on Monday, January 25.

The route covers Belgium, Poland, the Netherlands, the UK, Sweden, Hungary and Ireland. Two Raw broadcasts and two SmackDown broadcasts are included, with the other four dates running as Road to Royal Rumble Supershows.

One wrinkle: the branding no longer lines up with the event. WWE confirmed last week that Royal Rumble 2027 takes place at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, in February, so the tour wraps at least a week before the show it’s named after. The 2026 version fed straight into the Rumble in Riyadh.

2027 Road To Royal Rumble Tour Dates

  • Friday, January 15: SmackDown, Forest National, Brussels, Belgium
  • Saturday, January 16: Supershow, PreZero Arena, Gliwice, Poland
  • Sunday, January 17: Supershow, Ziggo Dome, Amsterdam, Netherlands
  • Monday, January 18: Raw, OVO Hydro, Glasgow, UK
  • Friday, January 22: SmackDown, Co-op Live, Manchester, UK
  • Saturday, January 23: Supershow, Avicii Arena, Stockholm, Sweden
  • Sunday, January 24: Supershow, MVM Dome, Budapest, Hungary
  • Monday, January 25: Raw, 3Arena, Dublin, Ireland

The schedule splits into two four-day blocks with a three-day gap between Glasgow and Manchester, rather than the continuous run WWE used across eleven dates in January 2026.

What Is New On The Route

WWE is billing several firsts. Dublin gets its first Raw, Belgium its first SmackDown, and Gliwice its first WWE event of any kind. Manchester’s Co-op Live hosts its first WWE televised event.

The company also returns to Amsterdam for the first time in more than two years, Sweden for the first time in more than eight years, and Hungary for the first time in nearly a decade. Germany, which carried four of the eleven dates on last year’s Road to Royal Rumble tour, does not appear on the 2027 route at all.

Who Is Advertised

WWE lists Undisputed WWE Champion CM Punk, Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan, Cody Rhodes, Seth Rollins, World Tag Team Champions The Vision, Rhea Ripley, Trick Williams, Becky Lynch, Finn Bálor, Jey Uso, LA Knight, Oba Femi, Gunther and Jade Cargill, with the standard talent-subject-to-change caveat attached.

Ripley’s inclusion is the one worth watching. She underwent knee surgery this month, and the Wrestling Observer reported WWE’s hope is a return in time for the Royal Rumble itself, which lands after this tour finishes. Names advertised in August for January dates rarely survive contact with the calendar.

Presale registration is open now at WWE.com. General on-sale dates have not been announced.
