Pink Concert Receipts Approached $700 Million in 2023 and 2024 — Second-Largest Tour Gross Ever for a Female Artist

“Who Knew” Pink was selling so many concert tickets? The 45-year-old raked in nearly $700 million from performances during 2023 and 2024 – thereby turning in the “2nd highest grossing tour of all time from a female artist,” according to Live Nation.

The Ticketmaster parent touted Pink’s commercial feat in a detailed breakdown, which comes less than one week following the conclusion of the Trustfall Tour. Compared to decidedly high-demand tours from the likes of Taylor Swift and Oasis, that 34-date series didn’t receive an abundance of media coverage.

Nor did Pink’s Summer Carnival, which also took place (albeit with 97 dates) during 2023 and 2024. Even if some were in the dark about the artist’s extensive touring, however, diehard supporters were evidently well aware of the shows, buying approximately five million tickets overall, per Live Nation.

All told, the sales (attributable to Pink Live dates as well as those mentioned) fueled the initially noted $700 million or so in gross receipts. Meanwhile, in visiting 98 cities across 15 nations, the three-time Grammy winner broke several venue-specific attendance records, per Live Nation.

To name a few of the many attendance accomplishments at hand, Pink reportedly achieved record audience sizes at 15 venues, among them Philadelphia’s Citizens Bank Park and Minneapolis’ Target Field.

Down Under, Summer Carnival’s Australia and New Zealand leg “brought in over 1 million fans across 20 stadium dates,” Live Nation communicated. It’s possible that a small number of superfans enjoyed more than one of Pink’s Oceania shows, and some international tourists may have purchased passes while vacationing.

But assuming for simplicity’s sake that each attendee was unique and based in Australia or New Zealand, around 3.1% of the nations’ combined population saw Pink perform live.

Worth noting is that the tours’ sales would have been greater yet if not for the cancellation of four previously postponed shows. Pink just recently took to Instagram to apologize for the nixed gigs, explaining in more words that they were shelved because she requires surgery to fix lingering knee and shoulder injuries.

Bigger picture, these and other ticket-sale triumphs have arrived against the backdrop of slowdowns in certain areas – referring in part to Coachella’s failure to sell out and to a relatively long list of tour cancellations from prominent acts.

Unsurprisingly, touring’s mixed 2024 bag is affecting the way festivals, artists, and others are plotting their 2025 strategies. Last week, for instance, Coachella revealed a stacked 2025 lineup featuring Green Day, Post Malone, Travis Scott, and Lady Gaga.
