Kenny Chesney’s Tour Making Big Bucks…  But, Just How Big?

The numbers are in; and Kenny Chesney‘s Here and Now Tour is a huge success.

According to the numbers, his tour has sold over 1.2 million tickets, and is now his highest-grossing tour, ever.  It brought in over $135 million.

This tour started in Tampa in April, and immediately broke attendance records.

It did not hurt that part of the strategy was to bring in other “headliner” stars, to open for Chesney, nor was it bad to offer so much seating (and variety of it) with stadiums as venues.

The dominant showing placed Kenny’s latest tour in Pollstar‘s number 7 spot, for ticket revenue, for the third quarter.

Did you get the opportunity to attend Kenny’s latest tour?  If so, how much did you pay for that ticket (and maybe parking, transportation, food, drinks)?
