WrestleMania 36 will go on despite coronavirus concerns, according to ESPN.

WrestleMania, WWE’s biggest event of the year, is set for April 5 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa.

“The health and safety of our fans, performers and employees are our top priorities and we are monitoring the situation closely with our partners and government officials in Tampa Bay,” WWE said in a statement. “We remain committed to hosting WrestleMania at Raymond James Stadium on Sunday, April 5, and like other entertainment properties in the U.S., there are currently no plans to cancel or postpone our upcoming events.”

The Tampa Bay Times reported there had been three confirmed cases of coronavirus in Florida as of Tuesday.

The Tampa stadium, home to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, has an estimated capacity of more than 65,000.
