Seven Exciting Live Events To See in 2021

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, most traveling plans are still pending. We are all waiting anxiously for things to get back to normal to visit the places and attend the events on our wish list for many years. It could be a thrill for some of the individuals to go out and have dinner with friends. But some travel freaks spend months planning a tour or journey just for the sake of a single event.

So, what would you do? You could be living in an Asian country and want to attend a concert but can’t. Similarly, if you follow cultural, sports, or food festivals in any country, you have to plan your trip according to the schedule of that event since traveling restrictions have started to ease up in some parts of the world.

Here are some live events to see in 2021 to look out for. While some may be delayed due to ongoing pandemics, some are still accessible and set to begin on schedule.  

WWE

It’s back. After almost a year and a half of no action, one of the most popular TV shows in the world is back with a bang, throwing fans into a frenzy. The first event, Smackdown was sold out with more than 15,000 fans in attendance. Fans loved fireworks, famous names in wrestling, and loud music.

Since the first event was sold out, if you’re a fan, you need to find tickets asap before the next event because chances are it will be sold out soon. It’s an excellent idea to start right away and prepare for the following WWE live event.

On 17th August, it’s NXT, followed by Smackdown on 20^th August. You should keep an eye on SummerSlam 2021 because it’s one of the biggest events of the year, and tickets would be scarce.

Dia de Los Muertos (The Day of the Dead)

One of the most celebrated festivals in Mexico is Dia de Los Muertos (the day of the dead). The families celebrate this festival in memory of their loved ones who have died.

The event takes place from 31st October to 2nd November every year. It is a holiday of three days in which families gather to pray for their beloved ones. Most of the families go to cemeteries for prayers and making offerings.
