The 1989 tour grossed $250.7 million with a total of 83 shows (avg. ~$3 million/show)

So far, the Madonna's Rebel Heart tour has grossed a respectable $80.4 million from 45 shows (avg. ~$1.8 million/show). 82 shows were scheduled in total, and so 37 remain to add to her final gross.

Do you think the Rebel Heart tour has a chance at outgrossing the 1989 tour?

No.

[Thanatos]

No

[teresaguidice]

didn't you just do the math and answer your own question

[Aden]

Well if you do the simple math, she will end up grossing around $150 million if she does an average of $1.8 million for the rest of the 37 dates.

I don't think she will at this point but Madonna is a touring legend, she could always surprise us.

[The Second Coming]

No

[Bounce]

Nope

Madonna is indeed a touring legend which is why I am surprised Taylor has a chance at outdoing her like like this. Legacy acts tend to own touring.

I see you're still mad about my thread yesterday.

Considering Madonna oversaturated the market with tickets for the Sticky & Sweet Tour & then following MDNA tour, both massive tours that overshadow any other female tour, basic economics dictate that she wouldn't sell the same and therefore made a conscious effort to pull back the strings and tour countries she hadn't been to before with an arena tour.

But let's not get basic facts get in the way of some good "drags."

I feel like you knew the answer before posting this thread.

She's barely doing any stadiums with this tour.. Taylor´s NA leg was mostly stadiums

So obviously now. She still holds the 2 records for best selling tour though by a solo artist though.

[AvrilLaQueen]

Madonna didn't do stadium concerts, only arena tour! So no.

[Vine101]

No.

[Starstruck.]

You answered your own question

[Reinvention]

The real question is "Could the Rebel Heart Tour outgross the 1989 Tour if Madonna wanted to from the beginning?"

Guess the answer.

[Ibrahim]

Didn't Madonna use smaller locations?
