American pop star Taylor Swift is expected to make $620 million from her upcoming Eras Tour, according to a projection cited by Forbes.
The report, based on a projection by David Herlihy, a Northeastern University Teaching Professor and Music Industry Program Coordinator, notes that Taylor Swift will make 48 times more money than Ticketmaster from her tour.
Billboard has estimated that her Eras tour will generate $591 million in ticket sales, with Ticketmaster charging $12.9 million in fees. Reports have noted that Taylor Swift will make over $600 million from the ticket sales of her US tour alone and that she will become the first person with music as her main source of income to do so.
