Mr. Specialist Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 (edited) Quote FORBES It’s good to be queen. Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter — also known as Queen Bey — could clear nearly $2.2 billion from her “Renaissance” World Tour — some $600 million more than the $1.6 billion Taylor Swift could earn from “Eras.” Those eyepopping estimates are based on the most optimistic assumptions of the number of fans buying tickets at their concerts and high average ticket prices of about $700. “Renaissance” could gross between $275 million and $2.57 billion from tickets alone by the time it ends in September. Beyoncé’s most optimistic ticket revenue estimate — $2.57 billion — is well above Era’s $1.9 billion most optimistic box office. Due to fans’ pent-up desire to attend in-person concerts at the end of a more than three year pandemic, using optimistic assumptions makes sense to me. Conservative Renaissance revenue estimates range from $275 million to $428 million Should Beyoncé perform at 57 concerts, using Billboard’s $6.71 million in revenue per show, Renaissance would generate $382 million in revenue. Using the high end estimate of Billboard’s per show revenue of $7.5 million, Renaissance could generate ticket sales of about $428 million. Optimistic estimate ranges from $751 million to $2.57 billion Using more optimistic assumptions about the number of tickets sold at each concert and a higher average price per ticket, I estimate that Renaissance tour revenue could range from $751 million to $2.57 billion. Here are the most significant assumptions I used: All 57 concerts are completely sold out. The average concert capacity per venue totals 65,860 fans, based on my analysis of data from each venue. The low and high average ticket price ranges from $200 (per Billboard) to $678, according to TicketSmarter. The assumptions about selling out these full venues may be overly optimistic, however, the high ticket prices are consistent with Shaomian’s perspective.

KingWitch Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 She should add more shows for that , she can easily do Australia and more Europe dates .
FolkLover1989 Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 (edited) Bey had dynamic pricing on and even then she won't be able to do so Edited May 8, 2023 by FolkLover1989 1
Klein Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Beyoncé outgrossing Taylor is something that could totally happen, I'm not questioning that, but what are those 2.2B and 1.6B figures? “Renaissance could gross between $275 million and $2.57 billion" -> what is this range?
i spit on haters Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Just now, FolkLover1989 said: They literally can't see another female at top The same can easily be applied to Taylor and her white feminism.
Sombre Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 I don't think anyone with a brain realistically expects either tour to cross $2 billion.

Way too many members of the Swifties and the Hive are truly psychotic and need to touch grass. Many clearly haven't improved on here for years. This argument doesn't do that stereotype any favors.
campelo Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 (edited) Taylor have only NA at the moment Bey have EU and NA unlikely Bey will gross more than The Eras Edited May 8, 2023 by campelo
Jjang Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 it’s not happening Taylor will earn upwards $700m while Bey will earn around $500m.
Thinking Of You Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 4 minutes ago, i spit on haters said: The same can easily be applied to Taylor and her white feminism. Oop.
tiagol88 Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 How is it possible for a tour to gross somewhere between $275M and $2.57b? Also...her tour isn't sold out? I can buy tickets for like 20 shows at least... The tour will sellout at the end i'm sure...but claiming that it's sold out right now isn't true. There's a craziness for Taylor specially in America that Bey simply doesn't have. The Eras tour will surpass it by a long margin.

They're using the Tidal calculator
Feanor Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Neither's average ticket price will be $700. That being said, I do expect Beyoncé to earn more per show since she's had dynamic pricing + those extra expensive standing-only areas near the stage while Taylor's set-up is entirely seated. So it'll depend on who'll end up with more shows (and Beyoncé is leading there for now too).

And it's always wild to me when stans on the opposite side get into heated arguments over tour grossings as if they're personally pocketing a percentage of the revenue.
Feetree Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Has anyone earned 2billion from a tour before male or female

Yakult Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Forbes posted that mess? It reads like stan fiction/bait.
MingYouToo Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Beyonce can tour NA and Europe all she wants but its over the moment Taylor decides to step foot in China and Japan She could have a whole 30 date tour in East Asia alone and that wouldnt still quell her demand
