Fleetwood Mac Rank No.14 on Pollstar Year End Top 20 Worldwide Tours. Details here

Fleetwood Mac grossed nearly 100 million dollars performing 67 shows in 63 cities in 2013 landing them at No.14 on Pollstars Year End Top 20 Worldwide Tours tally.  Almost 900,000 fans from US/Canada, UK and Europe saw the band between April and December.  Pollstars full 2013 touring report will come available January 9th.


Just to compare to the last time the band toured I dug out the 2009 Year End Results from Pollstar - they ranked No.13 in the world for the Unleashed Tour grossing 84.9 million from 79 shows in 72 cities. What you have to look at is the increase in the Average Ticket Price and the Average Attendance per show for 2013 - both of which are way up, which increases your per show take.  The band did very well in 2013!

  1. I thought they did better than that. I'm disappointed.

  2. This is their highest grossing tour yet, even from only 67 shows!!! Close to $100 million gross is fantastic so it's no wonder why they want to go out again this year. So much for "We like to tour every 3 years!"

  3. I hope they do tour the U.S. again in 2014, since I did miss out in 2013!

  4. With Christine back with them, I'm sure the promoters will heavily promote "the original 'Rumours' lineup" and tix prices will skyrocket to even more.

  5. Don't be disappointed!!! The underlying numbers (seats sold, ticket prices, per show average capacity, number of dates) are tremendous!!! With a new album with Chris and all of the accompanying media that implies they're poised for their biggest years since RUMOURS and THE DANCE. They know it, too, so look forward to lots of activity for the next 2 or so years.
