Taylor Swift’s (USA) The Eras Tour, the first billion-dollar music tour, grossed an estimated $1,039,263,762 (£840,238,516) from 60 shows played in the USA, Mexico and Argentina between 17 March and 12 November 2023, according to figures published by Pollstar.
With an average gross of $17,321,063 (£14,003,976) per show and 4,349,363 tickets sold (at an average price of $238.95, or £193.19, per ticket), The Eras Tour comfortably out-grossed Beyoncé’s 56-date Renaissance World Tour ($579,813,546, or £468,775,773, between 10 May and 1 October 2023). In a flagship year for live music, which generated $9.17 billion (£7.41 billion) combined from the top 100 tours reported to Pollstar – a rise of 46% on 2022’s then-record gross of $6.28 billion (£5.2 billion) – both Beyoncé (albeit briefly) and Swift were on hand to set new benchmarks for the amount of money made from a music tour in a single year.
Pollstar’s 2023 chart year ran from 17 November 2022 to 15 November 2023, which excluded the final six dates of the South American leg of The Eras Tour in Brazil on 17–26 November 2023. Including these shows, Pollstar estimates that The Eras Tour generated about $1.14 billion (£903.99 million) in 2023.
As of 11 December 2023, there were another 91 scheduled Eras Tour performances to add to its overall gross – the six concerts in Brazil on 17–26 November 2023 and 85 shows between 7 February and 8 December 2024.
