Taylor Swift sells out both Chicago shows, sets female record: Soldier Field
Swift has another reason to feel connected to Chicago, thanks to some new records she set.
The megastar is the first solo female artist to perform two consecutive nights at Soldier Field and she sold out the Saturday and Sunday shows, with 55,431 tickets purchased for Sunday's show and 54,445 tickets bought for Saturday's concert, according to Soldier Field.
Madonna is the only other solo female artist to play Soldier Field, stadium spokesman Luca Serra said. Serra didn't have numbers for Madonna's show on July 31, 1987 but a Tribune article at the time said about 48,000 seats were sold for that show. Swift sold out her Soldier Field show in August 2013 for her RED Tour with more than 50,000 tickets purchased.
