Katy Perry wraps 'Lifetimes' Tour with $134M in ticket sales

[Teletubby 156,747]

The numbers are in for Katy Perry’s Lifetimes tour, which wrapped last month with more than $134 million total gross ticket sales, according to figures provided by her management.

All told, the trek shifted upwards of 1.05 million tickets from 91 shows in Asia, Australia, Europe, North America and South America, and raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for good causes.

In the United States, fans generated more than $264,000 for Perry’s Firework Foundation, which aims to empower children from underserved communities through arts initiatives. And in the United Kingdom, north of £81,000 ($109,000) was secured for the Music Venue Trust, the charitable organization that protects, secures and improves the country’s grassroots music venues.

Live Nation backed the U.S. and Canada legs of the tour, which officially launched April 23 in Mexico City, and wrapped up Dec. 7 in Abu Dhabi — a seven-and-a-half month jaunt.

Along the way, Perry stopped by 23 countries, including China, where she performed six shows. Those concerts in China — two in Hangzhou, three in Shanghai and one in Haikou — sold out one minute after going on sale, Perry’s reps tell Billboard.

The Lifetimes Tour was themed around Perry saving the world by rescuing a motif-heavy kaleidoscope of butterflies, which represented her various musical eras. With the finishing line in sight, Perry got new ink tied into the theme.

The tour came off the back of 143, which debuted and peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard 200 in late September 2024, for her seventh top 10 album in the U.S.

Damn, that's worse than the reported numbers for the Witness tour which hit $143.6m (this isn't inflation adjusted).

Love the katykats preemptively bragging last year that this tour would do better https://x.com/kperrystats/status/1891842673176191226?s=20

I’m jealous of the ticket prices her fans paid 😭 For comparison to Mayhem Ball, she is currently at 1.07 million attendance (compared to 1.05 mil for Katy), with a current gross of $230 million (compared to Katy’s $134 million). Here’s the real kicker though  Katy had 91 shows and Gaga has only done 56. Adding in Mayhem promo concerts, that brings it up to 62 dates with $287 million

I mean yeah I paid 120 for Katy and 201 for Gagisha for the same spots so  ATLEAST the experience was miles better at Gaga's show (even though I really enjoyed Katy, Mayhem was just monumental)

I paid 440 euros for 2 sitting tickets to see the Mayhem Ball in Manchester... Eventually nobody wanted to go with me so I sold one of the tickets and got 220 euros back. I paid 80 euro for a GA ticket for Katy also in Manchester, I got lost at the station and for some reason ended up nearly towards the start of the queue for GA and nearly got barricade, Katy was singing less 10 meters from me most of the time  it's the cheapest concert ticket I ever paid for and yet I had the best view of all

lol I paid $200 for the eternity pit resale the day before the show and could hear Katy's heels clicking while we walked the stage 

 

if mayhem ball was that cheap, I'd be at every show
