celeb news Eras Tour now Japan's most economically impactful musical event ever

[The Music Industry]

CNN: Taylor Swift mania sweeps Tokyo

 

Quote

Swift’s stardom holds such outsized power that experts say she may single-handedly boost Japan’s entire economy in just four days.
 

Up to 34.1 billion yen (about $229.6 million) are expected to be generated from Swift’s concerts, said Mitsumasa Etou, a representative of research site Economic Effects NET, and a part-time lecturer at Tokyo City University.
 

He called the tour Japan’s biggest ever musical event in terms of predicted economic impact – expected to surpass Fuji Rock, one of Japan’s biggest music festivals, which last year generated about 20 billion yen (about $134.6 million) in revenue.
 

The estimated numbers for Swift’s tour don’t even include the impact of international tourists coming to Japan for the show, he said.

I never understand these articles. Do Taylor fans eat out more prior to concerts than people at a sold out Coldplay concert?

Generally speaking, it’s a combination of the type of consumer that attends her shows sometimes spending more money locally, her status attracting temporary vendors and inspiring temporary promotions, the number of shows she does, and the total attendance. In this particular case, a big factor is that Coldplay did two shows in Japan while Taylor is doing four.

As someone flying to Tokyo after work today for the tour…yes
