That’s super cool. Also, Jesus Christ how much money has that tour made??? Anyone want to take a crack at the napkin math?

Maybe 500 million to a billion?

Yeah you’re on it.

When Taylor Swift sells the remaining 170,000 tickets for her 52-date Eras tour later this month, the U.S. trek will have generated $591 million in sales, Billboard estimates. The average ticket price is $215, according to concert business sources.

And that’s just for the 52 US tour shows. Then it will be 131 shows for the US + world tour?

So yeah it should be over $1B in total tickets. Wow

Ok $1B in ticket sales, minus how much it costs to produce the tour?
