IAwrestle is proud to announce that Night of Conflict is officially sold out ahead of its return on Friday, October 10, 2025, in Iowa City. The preseason showcase will take place at the Courtyard Iowa City University Heights (901 Melrose Ave, Iowa City, IA 52246). Doors will open at 6:30 PM with wrestling set to begin at 7:00 PM.

Fans unable to secure tickets can still catch every moment live on the IAwrestle Rokfin channel.

This year’s edition marks a heartfelt homecoming, nearly 10 years to the day from the inaugural Night of Conflict on October 16, 2015, held at the iconic Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City. The event immediately made a statement by bringing marquee matchups to one of the sport’s most iconic stages. From there, the event hit the road across the state—stopping in Sioux City, Des Moines, Cedar Falls and Waterloo—each year building on its reputation as the place to see state champions collide, national talent test themselves, and rising stars announce their arrival.

Through the years, Night of Conflict has featured dozens of eventual NCAA standouts and Division I recruits, cementing its status as a proving ground for wrestlers looking to compete on the biggest stages. Whether at Carver or a convention center packed shoulder-to-shoulder, the event has always been about the same thing: putting elite high school talent under the spotlight and giving fans a preview of the future of wrestling.

“To see this event sell out in less than six hours shows just how much excitement wrestling fans have for Night of Conflict,” said IAwrestle founder Tony Hager. “From the very beginning we wanted to give athletes a big stage and fans an unforgettable experience, and the 10-year anniversary in Iowa City will be exactly that. For those who couldn’t get a ticket, we’re proud to deliver the full experience live on Rokfin.”
