# AEW Grand Slam Mexico 2026 To Air Live From Arena Mexico On August 5

All Elite Wrestling has announced its return to Arena Mexico, with AEW Grand Slam Mexico confirmed for later this year.

As announced by Bandido on [Fox Sports Mexico](https://x.com/FOXSportsMX/status/2061840272909316202) and later confirmed by AEW, the company will return to Mexico on August 5 for Grand Slam: Mexico 2026.

The event will air live from Arena Mexico, on TBS and HBO Max in the US and on Fox Sports Mexico in Mexico.

AEW shared the following on its [official site](https://www.allelitewrestling.com/post/aew-grand-slam-mexico-returns-to-arena-mexico-wednesday-august-5):

*AEW Grand Slam: Mexico Returns To Arena Mexico Wednesday, August 5*

*General Tickets On Sale This Saturday, June 6 at 10 AM CST*

*June 2, 2026 – All Elite Wrestling (AEW) today announced that AEW Grand Slam: Mexico will return to Arena Mexico on Wednesday, August 5. The event will air live in the United States on TBS and stream live on HBO Max and in Mexico on Fox Sports Mexico.*

*Tickets for AEW Grand Slam: Mexico will go on sale this Saturday, June 6 at 10AM CST via AEWTix.com and Ticketmaster.com.mx.*

*Additional information regarding AEW Grand Slam: Mexico will be announced in the near future. All interested fans can register to become an AEW insider by visiting allelitewrestling.com/aew-insider.*

This will be the second Grand Slam Mexico event, following the first on June 18, 2025. Tony Khan had stated following this show that a return to Mexico was [“almost a virtual certainty” for AEW.](https://wrestletalk.com/news/aew-international-virtual-certainty/)

Last year’s event was headlined by a [10-man tag-team match](https://wrestletalk.com/news/aew-the-beast-mortos-arena-mexico-reaction/), with The Beast Mortos, Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta and the Young Bucks facing off against Will Ospreay, Swerve Strickland, Samoa Joe, Katsuyori Shibata and Powerhouse Hobbs.

AEW has already held a Grand Slam event this year, with Grand Slam Australia headlined by MJF vs Brody King on February 14.

While the first four AEW Grand Slam events took place at New York’s Arthur Ashe Stadium between 2021-2024, it now appears to be a brand related to recurring international visits.

With Tony Khan [previously stating that he wants to hold AEW shows in France and Germany](https://wrestletalk.com/news/aew-international-future-locations/), it would make sense for one of these locations to be the next host of Grand Slam.
