TAS Rights ManagementTaylor Swift’s Reputation stadium tour just got underway, but it’s already on track to post some record-breaking numbers.
Billboard reports that the tour has already brought in $54 million from its first five venues, and could potentially earn as much as $400 million when all is said and done.
Taylor’s kickoff show in Glendale, AZ on May 8 at the University of Phoenix Stadium broke both One Direction‘s 2014 attendance record and Metallica‘s 2017 box office gross record for that venue. Taylor’s two-night stand at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA last month is now the highest-grossing concert engagement of 2018 by a single headliner, according to Billboard. Taylor also broke U2‘s 2017 box-office gross record for the venue.
The superstar continued to set new record for box office grosses at Seattle’s CenturyLink Field and Sports Authority Field in Denver. At both venues, she broke records previously set by U2 in 2017 and 2011, respectively.
Tonight and Saturday, Taylor will play Solider Field in Chicago before heading overseas for a series of U.K. dates.
The Reputation tour returns to North America on June 30; that leg wraps up October 6 in Arlington, TX.
