Idol Tour Final Numbers
This summer’s Idol tour was profitable indeed. Thanks to USAToday’s Idol Chatter blog for running the numbers (courtesy Billboard Boxscore):
- Total gross: $35.2 million on 59 dates
- Total attendance: 645,782
- Total sellouts: 19 (32% of the shows)
- Percentage of seats sold, overall: 96%
- Top-grossing show: New York (East Rutherford, N.J.), about $890,000 each for two shows, July 13 and 14
- Top attendance: Greensboro, N.C., 15,337, July 30
- Lowest percentage of seats sold: Austin, 80%, Sept. 10
According to Idol Chatter, the tour “could be among the top 10 of the year, even without the high ticket prices that Madonna and other top individual acts command.” Pretty impressive.
thanks Kirsten (kudos on the correction!)
