GOING LIVE WITH POLLSTAR


In tandem with the release of his new project, Ed Sheeran—now on the U.K./Euro stretch of his world tour—tops the Pollstar LIVE75 Chart. Sheeran saw nearly 60k average tickets sold from 10 shows for an average gross of $4.8m and 98% average capacity sold.

The troubadour edges out legacy act Rolling Stones, who make their debut on the chart at #2, moving 46k+ in average tickets sold from just four shows. That results in an average gross of $10.7m and 100% average capacity.

Shawn Mendes stands out as the most impressive "newcomer," bowing at #7 with 100% average capacity.

Further down on the chart, electro-funk duo Chromeo was named a Pollstar Noisemaker—the honor that highlights the active tour with biggest positive chart gain from previous week. They're #29.

At #48, rapper Snow Tha Product earned Pollstar Breakthrough honors thanks to a ticket sales breakthrough that packed the house. Her average capacity from 10 shows was 98%.
