00:00 Taylor Swift's Eras Tour was making waves even before it kicked off, and now it's
00:10 on track to make history and break tour earning records by far.
00:19 The ticket demand was so crazy that it led to a senate hearing about Ticketmaster's
00:24 sales process, and resale tickets were going for insane prices.
00:29 Picture this, 4 hour lines for merch as well as massive crowds just hoping to catch a glimpse
00:36 of the show outside of stadiums.
00:45 It's been a mix of frustrating as well as incredible.
00:50 A lot of highs, a lot of lows, but mostly highs with Taylor Swift's Eras Tour.
00:59 And get this, even though we're just in the first year of two years of this tour,
01:05 experts predict she'll join the ranks of Beyonce, Coldplay, Harry Styles and Elton
01:10 John on the top 10 highest grossing tours of all times list.
01:20 No official figures from Taylor's team have come out yet, but when this tour wraps up,
01:25 it's likely going to go down as the biggest tour ever.
01:30 The big question is, how much is it going to rake in, and what is Taylor Swift pulling
01:34 in each of her shows?
01:36 Let's dive into the details and look what experts are saying, along with some interesting
01:42 estimated figures.
01:44 These stats are pretty incredible.
01:47 Taylor is just crushing it.
01:48 According to Forbes, Taylor Swift is pulling in an average of $13.6 million per show.
01:56 On the tour, it's set to have 151 total shows.
02:01 But Taylor is not just pocketing all of the cash for herself.
02:04 A chunk of the profits is going straight to the hardworking crew that's making all of
02:09 the shows happen.
02:16 Taylor also dished out about $50 million in just bonuses alone to their crew.
02:22 And truck drivers that are hauling her tour gear to different cities and stadiums earned
02:29 an extra $100,000 each.
02:32 And one thing to note is that it's not just the tour itself, but the tour movie is breaking
02:37 records.
02:38 Taylor Swift's A-Restore concert movie is crushing it at the global box office.
02:43 AMC Theatres, the ones putting out the tour movie, well, they revealed that Taylor Swift's
02:49 A-Restore pulled in a whopping $250 million in worldwide ticket sales.
02:57 And that puts it in the top 20 films of 2023.
03:01 And it's now officially the most successful concert film of all time.
03:06 Taylor really came for the crown here.
03:09 So when you take a look at it, the stats came out by Thanksgiving weekend, A-Restore, it
03:15 raked in $178.2 million in North America and $71.8 million overseas.
03:22 That's how it breaks down.
03:23 It was Taylor Swift and her crew that put up their own $50 million to make the A-Restore
03:28 film.
03:29 They did it all themselves.
03:30 So they're seeing some massive profits.
03:34 It's been a game changer for cinema also, especially with Hollywood studios experiencing
03:39 a big slowdown due to the strikes.
03:42 And you can see why Taylor Swift's staff and crew are making such huge bonuses because
03:48 they're sharing in the profits.
03:50 And Taylor was pretty smart, by the way.
03:51 She switched things up a little bit.
03:53 Instead of teaming up with a regular studio, she went all in with AMC.
03:57 So it was definitely a bold move that's been paying off big time.
04:02 And also, another thing to note is that they decided to give A-Restore another run in theaters.
04:07 So it's being re-released as well as being released digitally.
04:11 So brace yourself because it's predicted to bring in millions of dollars more.
04:16 Yeah, Taylor's definitely got the Midas touch here.
04:19 And at the rate it's going, guys, A-Restore might just be the first to hit the billion
04:24 dollar milestone in tour gross revenue.
04:27 So definitely shout outs to Taylor.
04:29 She is just crushing it, guys.
04:33 OK, guys, that's all the scoop I have for you in this one.
04:35 Hopefully this gives you an idea of just how much money Taylor Swift is earning.
04:39 Not from her other revenue streams, by the way.
04:42 This is just from the A-Restore.
04:45 If you enjoyed this one, don't forget to leave a big thumbs up.
04:47 And until the next video, stay awesome, and I'll see you soon.
