Will Eras Tour Become The Biggest Tour Ever?
Billboard estimates Eras will generate $591 million in ticketing revenue which is 71% more than her 2018 tour Reputation, which sold $345 million worth of tickets. Additionally, Swift’s income will also pour in from selling merchandise at the venues of the concert which totally estimates at over $87 million. If Eras concert earns according to Billboard’s estimation, then it will be declared the biggest tour ever.
Between 2017 and 2019, Ed Sheeran’s European tour grossed $780 million. It brought in almost nine million total fans who helped Sheeran bring in over $3 million per show across 255 events. All three of Swift’s recent shows at Lincoln Financial Field in South Philadelphia sold out. The shows also contributed to boosting the local economy with hotels seeing more reservations and the Independence Visitor Center seeing a spike in ticket sales. However by the time Eras Tour wraps up in August, it will become one of the highest-grossing tours of all time.
