Forbes: Rihanna on track for most popular tour of 2016
Quote:
If prior tour sales and dominant album successes over the years are any indication for how the upcoming year may turn out, Rihanna may be on track to have one of the most popular tours of 2016. Last week, the eight-time Grammy winner announced a major North American trek, “The Anti-World Tour” that is set to launch on February 26 at the Viejas Arena in San Diego.
Tickets to see Rihanna were released in a presale for American Express Card members on November 30, and the general on-sale tickets will be released December 3 at 10:00 AM PST. Ticket demand is already massive for her 2016 dates, as secondary market tickets are already averaging $227 across the map, according to data provided by TiqIQ. As it stands, Rihanna is on track to play some super pricey shows in the U.S., as all but seven scheduled dates are averaging above the $200 price mark on the secondary market.
Rihanna’s most expensive stop is set for her March 15 performance at the American Airlines Arena in Miami, where tickets are averaging $305, with the cheapest ticket available for $57.
Rihanna has had no problem selling records or concert tickets in the past. This past summer, The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) announced that Rihanna had surpassed more than 100 million gold & platinum song certifications, pushing her to the No. 1 spot on the list of artists with the most digital single awards. The achievement elevated Rihanna to even greater heights, as she became the first artist to cross the 100 million song certification mark.
Isnt it a beautiful thing that the stadium dates are selling quite fast? *giggles hysterically*
Well most acts sell more tickets here faster, Seeing how coldplay for instance sold the more tickets in less time aswell As Beyonce. At a higher price and without two big acts as support.
But ok.
I wouldn't be so sure. Coldplay seems to be doing stadiums everywhere vs. Rihanna doing arenas in North America. But on the other hand, i believe Rihanna will be adding more stadiums to this list + she has higher prices in Europe as far as im concerned. It'll be a very close race either way this goes!
