The 2011 Survivor Series was the 25th annual Survivor Series professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by WWE. It took place on November 20, 2011, at Madison Square Garden in New York City. It was also the first one to take place in Madison Square Garden since the 2002 event, as well as the first Survivor Series held following the end of the first brand extension in August.
