Beyoncé could clear over $2billion (£1.6billion) from her upcoming ‘Renaissance’ tour — over half a billion more than Taylor Swift is set to make on her ‘Eras’ tour.The impressive statistics were reported by Forbes yesterday (May 8), and suggest that the ‘Break My Soul’ singer may have one of the highest-grossing tours of all time by the time she completes the run of live dates.Estimates are based on the most optimistic assumptions regarding the number of fans purchasing tickets, the high ticket prices and the amount of merchandise sold at each live gig.As per the report, ‘Renaissance’ could gross between $275 million and $2.4 billion from tickets alone by the time it ends in September.
