Beyoncé makes a big splash at the boxoffice with the first ticket sales figures reported from her "Cowboy Carter Tour," produced by Live Nation. The tour's opening five-show engagement at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, grossed a whopping $55.7 million, making it the highest-grossing concert engagement of the year so far, based on worldwide boxoffice data reported to Pollstar since the beginning of January.

The overall number of tickets sold for the tour opener was 204,461, an average of 40,892 per night. Ticket prices for the concerts ranged from a low of $50 to a top price of $801. Her sold-out shows at the Los Angeles-area NFL stadium between April 28 and May 9 averaged $11.14 million per show, marking a 7.6 percent increase over the $10.35 million gross average from her "Renaissance World Tour" in 2023.

Taylor had six shows for the Eras Tour, whereas Bey's eight shows are split up between two tours, less than 24 months apart. Rigged metric. Taylor or another big stadium artist could easily surpass this.

Congratulations to Beyonce for doing nearly 1/10th of Gaga's Rio attendance across 5 nights, and for having the most shows at a stadium which has been open for fewer than 5 years. 

[hoax]

Congratulations to Beyonce for selling ~43,400 tickets per night in a stadium where other peers in the industry have sold ~70,000 per night 

 

Even with Renaissance she was able to sell 52k per night... I wonder what was different this time?
