Taylor Swift’s Record-Breaking Eras Tour Wraps with $2.2 Billion Gross
Taylor Swift's monumental Eras Tour has officially concluded, and the final numbers are nothing short of historic. The nearly two-year global tour, spanning five continents and 149 shows, grossed an estimated $2.2 billion, making it the highest-grossing tour of all time for the second consecutive year, according to Pollstar. The tour concluded with a grand finale in Vancouver, Canada.
Swift’s Eras Tour shattered records, becoming the first tour ever to surpass $1 billion in gross revenue last year. “We are witnessing history in the making,” said Andy Gensler, editor-in-chief of Pollstar & VenuesNow. “What Taylor Swift and The Eras Tour accomplished in 21 months across five continents before 10 million fans is extraordinary and unprecedented. The tour’s estimated gross of $2.2 billion is the highest of all time and nearly doubles the second biggest tour.”
The second-highest-grossing tour, Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres run, has brought in approximately $1.14 billion since March 2022 and is expected to increase its total with additional dates scheduled through 2025. Despite Coldplay selling over 10.3 million tickets—slightly more than Swift—she retains the record for the most tickets sold by a solo performer, with just over 10 million sold.
Swift's achievements have set a new standard for live music tours. Gensler highlighted the broader implications of this success: “It’s also an example of the limits this industry continues to push far past while bringing music, community, and peak life experiences to legions across the globe.”
Pollstar’s data, drawn from box office reports, venue capacities, historical ticket sales, and additional research, underscores the tour's extraordinary scale and impact. This information was collected between November 2022 and December 2024, capturing the full scope of the tour’s achievements.
Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has redefined the potential of live music events, combining unmatched fan engagement with record-breaking commercial success. As the curtain closes on this groundbreaking chapter, Swift’s influence on the music industry and live performances remains unparalleled, marking her as one of the most significant artists of her generation.
