Taylor Swift and her “Eras Tour” are soaring high in the live show business. Time to hold onto your “Eras” bracelets, because this tour is on track to mark the biggest record in ticket sales. That’s right, Swifities (That’s the name Taylor Swift fans wear proudly) our queen is making waves and cash around the globe.
Now, these are the facts: T-Swift could beat Elton John’s “Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour”, which has grossed a whopping $900 million. This is because “The Eras Tour” is not falling short with its numbers, as every concert has grossed nearly 15 million dollars.
Here’s some background needed to understand Tay’s massive tour: on November 26, this pop queen concluded (at least for this year) her 66-concert ride through the United States, Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil, and fans took every chance they could to attend the shows.
The jaw-dropping results estimate that Taylor captured $838.3 million in total, which makes it the best-selling tour in the US, and also makes it the second-highest-grossing tour globally. With this, names like U2, Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson, or Madonna are all behind that Taylor-fever at this point.
As Taylor inches closer to Elton John’s global record, predictions only favor her position. It is very likely that the “Eras Tour” will get to the number one place in the best-selling tours ranking after the “Style” hitmaker finishes her shows in Japan and Australia.
Actually, The Eras Tour will have even more dates next year, starting in May 2024 and ending in December, Taylor definitely has a chance to take the crown.
