The 2024 touring season is over. Here are the year-end summaries of the top tours.
Although there’s a couple of weeks left in the year, the 2024 touring season is pretty much complete. Pollstar, the bible of the live music industry, has compiled some charts about who went to see whom and how much money was made.
First, to no one’s shock, the top-grossing tour of 2024 was Taylor Swift’s Eras tour. However, the most-attended tour was Coldplay’s 2022-24 Music of the Spheres road trip with 10.3 million ticket sold, edging out Tay-Tay by a few hundred thousand. And if we total up the top 100 tours, grosses were US$9.48 billion.
It’s not all pop, though. The Rolling Stones were the top-grossing act in North America in 2024
Let’s look at some handy charts.
