The Eras Tour became the highest-grossing tour of all time before it was even halfway finished. While Swift’s team
doesn’t plan to report box office numbers as many artists do,
Pollstar estimated she grossed over a billion dollars, making her the first artist ever to hit that milestone in a single tour.
Guinness World Records made it official in December after Swift concluded the 2023 leg. Since she’s playing shows through 2024,
Variety estimates that the number could rise to an
astounding $2 billion by the tour’s end.
Swift takes the record from Elton John, whose Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour became the
biggest tour to date in January 2023. His years-long trek ended in July 2023, and made $939 million over 328 shows. To put Swift’s achievement in context, she broke the record after performing 66 shows out of a planned 152 shows.
