WrestleMania XXIV is the forthcoming twenty-fourth annual WrestleMania professional wrestling pay-per-view produced by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). It is scheduled to take place on March 30 2008 at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Florida. The event will be the first WrestleMania to be held in the state of Florida. It will also be the second WrestleMania to be held entirely outdoors, the only other having been WrestleMania IX.

WWE and the city of Orlando plan to host festivities that will span over a five day period within the central Florida region bringing numerous branding opportunities and television coverage, leading up to the event at the Citrus Bowl. Despite the risks of an outdoor show, WWE chairman Vince McMahon has announced that the "show will go on, regardless of the weather." The Central Florida Sports Commission estimate WrestleMania XXIV will pump $25 million into the local economy while creating numerous jobs, and bring around 60,000 visitors to the city for the event.

WrestleMania XXIV will be a joint-promotion pay-per-view event, featuring performers from the RAW, SmackDown!, and ECW brands. The tagline for WrestleMania XXIV is "The Biggest WrestleMania Under the Sun". Tickets went on sale to the public on November 3 2007. Over 41,000 tickets were sold in 30 minutes, already making WrestleMania XXIV the highest-grossing event in the history of the Citrus Bowl.

John Cena was this years Royal Rumble winner and will choose which World Title match he will want to go for.
