About these figures

  • Every figure comes from StubHub resale listings that we check every hour: the cheapest ticket listed for each show. They are not face value.
  • Each page shows a figure only when enough shows stand behind it, and says how many.
  • For figures on a particular event or period, see press and data requests.
