WWE Announces Royal Rumble Attendance, Stadium Record
WWE announced that the 2020 Royal Rumble pay-per-view from Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas drew a sold out crowd of 42,715 fans in attendance.
WWE noted during the announcement that this set a new attendance for the stadium, beating a previous record for a Taylor Swift concert at the park. The arena announced back in November 2011 that their Swift and Nelly concert had 42,095 fans in attendance.
WWE previously announced a sold out crowd of 48,193 fans in attendance last year for the 2019 Rumble pay-per-view at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona.
