All In is a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by the American promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW) since 2023. The inaugural event was held independently in September 2018 and inspired the creation of AEW a few months later in January 2019. Since its revival under AEW, the event has been traditionally held at Wembley Stadium in London, England during the United Kingdom's August Bank Holiday weekend. All In has become the biggest show of the year for AEW and their flagship/marquee event, similar in comparison to WWE's WrestleMania, and is one of AEW's "Big Five" PPV events, along with All Out, Double or Nothing, Full Gear, and Revolution.
The inaugural 2018 event was organized and promoted by wrestlers Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) of a stable called The Elite, in association with the American promotion Ring of Honor (ROH), which retained the rights to the event. Rhodes, The Young Bucks, and Elite stablemate Kenny Omega would become executive vice presidents of AEW, and the company established a spiritual successor to All In called All Out. After AEW president Tony Khan purchased ROH in March 2022, he obtained the rights to All In and revived the event in 2023 as an annual summer PPV for AEW.
The inaugural event, held at the Sears Centre Arena in the Chicago suburb of Hoffman Estates, Illinois, was notable for being the first non-WWE or World Championship Wrestling promoted professional wrestling event in the United States to sell 10,000 tickets since 1993. The 2023 event at Wembley Stadium in London, England had an attendance of 72,265, the biggest in AEW's history and one of the biggest in professional wrestling. It would also be AEW's first PPV held in the United Kingdom and in an association football stadium. All In would continue to be held at Wembley during the August Bank Holiday weekend, with the exception of the 2025 event, which was held in July in the United States in Arlington, Texas as the first professional wrestling event at Globe Life Field, subsequently being AEW's first PPV event held in a baseball stadium. With an attendance of over 27,000, this became AEW's largest North American event, and third largest in company history, behind the 2023 and 2024 editions of All In, respectively. The event will return to its traditional scheduling at Wembley Stadium during the August Bank Holiday weekend in 2026.
