Taylor Swift's record-breaking Eras Tour has been surpassed by the legendary Rolling Stones.
The Rolling Stones has reportedly overtaken Taylor's tour in terms of single-night revenue. They earned a staggering 10.3 million pounds per concert on their Hackney Diamonds Tour.
As per Pollstar's annual Voice of Live year-end review, the band's tour grossed more per night than Taylor's record-breaking run, despite her impressive 1.74 billion pounds total earnings.
However, Coldplay and Madonna also earned significant sums this year with Chris Martin’s band securing third position on the list.
Editor in Chief of Pollstar Andy Gensler said, "2024 has proven to be a historic year for the live entertainment industry. We saw record-setting revenues, with the top two tours of all time running concurrently."
Additionally, Gensler had predicted Taylor’s Eras Tour was on track to reach 2 billion dollars over the summer. “She is the torchbearer for the live industry. It’s nothing we’ve ever seen before, and it’ll be a long time before we see it again,” he told Variety.
