Harry Styles’ Love on Tour grosses $600m
Harry Styles has grossed close to $600 million with his recently wrapped outing, Love On Tour.
The Live Nation-produced world tour kicked off in September 2021 and spanned nearly three years, combining post-pandemic shows in support of his 2019 album Fine Line with 2022-23 dates promoting his more recent Grammy-winning LP Harry’s House.
The $590.3m run, which combined arena and stadium shows, saw 4.7 million people attend 165 shows across five continents, according to Billboard.
This puts Love on Tour in fourth place on Billboard Boxscore’s top 10 highest-grossing tours of all time, after Elton John’s Farewell Yellow Brick Road ($939m), Ed Sheeran’s The Divide Tour ($776m) and U2’s 360° Tour ($736m).
The $590.3m run, which combined arena and stadium shows, saw 4.7 million people attend 165 shows across five continents
Highlights of the tour include 20 sold-out nights at New York City’s Madison Square Garden, 18 nights at Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, and four nights at London’s Wembley Stadium which grossed $36.4m and sold 335,000 tickets.
The last full month of the tour was also notable, with Styles earning $105.4 million and selling 967,000 tickets from 15 stadium shows. This saw the former One Direction star shoot to number 1 on Billboard’s Top Tours chart in June.
The 29-year-old is only the second act to earn a nine-figure monthly gross after Bad Bunny raked in $123.7 million in September 2022 on World’s Hottest Tour.
Of the $600m gross, Styles raised and donated more than $6.5m to a long list of charities and nonprofit organisations around the world, including Planned Parenthood, Save the Children, Black Minds, Choose Love, the Sydney Zoo and Every Town for Gun Safety.
Styles, who is represented by CAA, wrapped the final show of Love on Tour in Reggio Emilia, Italy, on 22 July.

Styles fans banned from camping outside venue
Harry Styles fans have been warned they could be refused entry to the singer’s upcoming Australian stadium show if they attempt to camp overnight ahead of the gig.
The 29-year-old singer will perform a sold-out concert at the 32,000-cap HBF Park in Perth on 20 February as part of his Live Nation-promoted Love on Tour.
However, the venue, which is operated by VenuesWest, has released a statement on social media advising that camping is not permitted.
“For the wellbeing and safety of our patrons, camping for the Harry Styles Love on Tour Concert is strictly prohibited,” it says. “Any patrons queuing or camping prior to 8am on event day will be asked to move.
“No priority entry will be given to anyone camping outside the venue prior to event day, and fan made early line systems will not be honoured”
“No priority entry will be given to anyone camping outside the venue prior to event day, and fan made early line systems will not be honoured.”
A spokesperson for VenuesWest tells WAtoday the decision was prompted by early indications that large numbers of fans intended to camp outside, possibly for days, which presented safety concerns.
The Perth date is the opening night of Styles’ Australia & New Zealand tour, with upcoming shows scheduled for Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium (24-25 February), Metricon Stadium on the Gold Coast (28 February), Sydney’s Accor Stadium (3-4 March) and Mount Smart Stadium in Auckland, New Zealand (7 March).
The CAA-repped star was the big winner at last weekend’s BRIT Awards at The O2 in London, picking up four awards to add to his Grammy for Record of the Year. Last year, he became only the third music artist to have a banner raised to the rafters at New York’s Madison Square Garden in celebration of his 15 consecutive nights at the 20,000-cap arena.

Harry Styles announces 2023 European stadium run
Harry Styles will continue his current Love on Tour outing with a run of stadium shows in Europe next spring and summer.
The newly announced 2023 leg, which includes two more nights at London’s Wembley Stadium, will be the British superstar’s first full stadium tour of the region.
Kicking off on 13 May at Denmark’s CASA Arena, Love on Tour will visit Munich, Edinburgh, Paris, Amsterdam, London, Warsaw, Vienna, Barcelona, Madrid and more, before wrapping at Reggio Emilia, Italy, on 22 July.
Wet Leg will be joining Styles on all European tour dates, with Inhaler performing on 10 June 2023 in Slane, Ireland.
The former One Direction star has also announced additional shows for his current US run, taking the Live Nation-produced world tour up to 83 dates across 22 countries.
The North America run has gained an extra night at Austin’s Moody Center on 3 October and another at Chicago’s United Center on 15 October, totalling six shows in each city.

After wrapping up the NA tour dates on 15 November 2022, the 28-year-old will head to Latin America, with a final show added in São Paulo, Brazil at Allianz Parque on 13 December.
His 29 November show in Lima, Peru, has received a venue upgrade due to high demand and will now take place at Estadio Nacional (cap. 43,086), elsewhere in the capital city.
The tour will then move to Australia and New Zealand for a seven-date stadium run between 20 February and 7 March 2023, as previously announced, before heading to Europe.
Earlier this summer, Styles returned to Europe for the first time since the pandemic, selling out two nights at London’s Wembley Stadium on 18 and 19 June with a total of 147,269 tickets grossing $14.8 million, according to Pollstar.
Other highlights from his 2022 European leg included two nights at Old Trafford Cricket Ground in Manchester on 15 and 16 June, selling 99,526 tickets and grossing $9.5m.
That comes after Styles last year was named 2021’s top worldwide ticket seller in Pollstar‘s year-end rankings after selling 669,051 tickets for his Love on Tour arena dates, generating $86,723,984 (€76,916,720).

LN, Harry Styles pledge $1m to gun safety fund
Live Nation and Harry Styles have pledged to donate more than $1 million in proceeds from the singer’s Love on Tour 2022 dates to a gun safety organisation.
In the wake of recent mass shootings across the US, including the horrifying events in Uvalde, Texas last week, Styles has announced he will be donating proceeds from the tour to the Everytown for Gun Safety Support Fund, with Live Nation matching the pledge.
Everytown for Gun Safety Support Fund is the education, research, and litigation arm of Everytown for Gun Safety, the largest gun violence prevention organisation in the States.
“I have been absolutely devastated by the recent string of mass shootings in America”
“Along with all of you, I have been absolutely devastated by the recent string of mass shootings in America, culminating at Robb Elementary School in Texas,” says Styles. “On our North American tour, we will be partnering with Everytown who work to end gun violence, donating to support their efforts, and sharing their suggested action items.”
Styles has sold out his 42-date tour, staged in support of his new album Harry’s House, in its entirety, including five additional shows in both New York and Los Angeles. He recently played two special One Night Only shows in New York and London to launch the record.
Produced by Live Nation, the tour kicks off on 15 August at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Canada. Styles will continue his residencies in New York City for 15 nights at Madison Square Garden, Austin for five nights at Moody Center, and Chicago for five nights at United Center, before wrapping up at Los Angeles’ Kia Forum for a 15-night run concluding on 15 November.
Styles was 2021’s top worldwide ticket seller
First of all, the 28-year-old will play stadium shows at Glasgow’s Ibrox Stadium (11 June), Manchester’s Emirates Old Trafford (15-16 June) and London’s Wembley Stadium (18-19 June) in his native UK, followed by a string of European dates.
Apple Music launched its new recurring live music series Apple Music Live with Harry Styles: One Night Only in New York at UBS Arena in Long Island on 20 May.
Styles was 2021’s top worldwide ticket seller according to Pollstar‘s year-end rankings, selling 669,051 tickets for his Love on Tour arena dates, generating $86,723,984 (€80,530,991).
