The ticket reseller stated in a press release that the tour is more than just a tour. They described it as a cultural phenomenon and suggested that we are all experiencing Taylor’s version of the world.
According to StubHub, Swift remained the best-selling artist worldwide for the entire year and sold almost 12 times more than her 2018 “Reputation” tour.

StubHub stated that its rankings were determined by the total sales made through its website worldwide, but did not disclose specific numbers.
That’s Snub Hub to Adele Fans
According to StubHub’s report, Adele’s residency in Vegas was more successful than U2’s. She was the top-selling act, outselling U2 by almost 50%, even though her venue was only 1/4 of the size. This shows that live entertainment was thriving in Vegas this year.
Why was Adele not listed in the Top 5 Vegas performers on StubHub, while U2 ranked third?
According to reports, Adele fans were not satisfied with their experience buying tickets through StubHub. It seems that either the fans did not support the ticket reseller, or the reseller made a mistake.
