This week’s AEW Dynamite from Montreal had an extra bonus for Canadian fans: the promise that the company will be back in the country next year.
The wait won’t even be that long, and while Montreal isn’t on the list of cities for AEW’s 2024 Canadian tour, a number of big markets are. Here are the eight shows announced Wednesday night:
- Saturday, March 16: AEW Collision from the Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa
- Wednesday, March 20: AEW Dynamite and Rampage from the Coca-Cola Coliseum in Toronto
- Wednesday, March 27: AEW Dynamite and Rampage from the Centre Videotron in Quebec City
- Saturday, March 30: AEW Collision from the Budweiser Gardens in London, Ontario
- Wednesday, April 10: AEW Dynamite and Rampage from the Canada Life Centre in Winnipeg
- Wednesday, May 8: AEW Dynamite and Rampage from Rogers Place in Edmonton
- Saturday, May 11: AEW Collision from Rogers Arena in Vancouver
- Wednesday, July 10: AEW Dynamite and Rampage from the Saddledome in Calgary (of note, this taping takes place during the Calgary Stampede)
AEW first visited Canada in the fall of 2022 for shows in Toronto after having to abandon plans to do so in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It’s since visited the country on multiple occasions, including for the second Forbidden Door pay-per-view in conjunction with NJPW in Toronto earlier this year.
“I think that the global successes of 2023, especially our historic ticket sales record set at ‘AEW: All In London’ at Wembley Stadium and our foray into Canada where we saw incredible moments such as ‘AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door’ in Toronto and the crowning of the second Owen Hart Foundation Tournament winners in Calgary, helped make this a
banner year for AEW,” AEW CEO, GM and head of creative Tony Khan said in a press release. “We’re in a great position going into 2024, and I
can’t wait to plant AEW’s flag in four new markets across Canada, and revisit some of the amazing cities we debuted in last summer. Everyone at AEW is proud to continue paying homage to Canada’s rich wrestling heritage, and serving the great Canadian fans with massive shows across the country in the new year.”
Tickets for all of the shows on the 2024 AEW Canadian tour go on sale Friday, Dec. 15 at 10 a.m. local time on AEWTix.com.
