Boxoffice Insider: Jonas Brothers’ ‘The Tour’ Nears $100 Million … And Counting

With the Jonas Brothers’ “Five Albums. One Night. The World Tour.” set to wrap for the year at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on Dec. 9, grosses from the 17-week North American trek are already at $93 million, according to the most recent box-office report that included concerts performed through early November. With shows booked in both arenas and stadiums, the pop trio has sold a total of 755,940 tickets from 46 performances at 40 venues since launching the tour at New York’s Yankee Stadium on Aug. 12.

That two-show opener alone racked up over $11.8 million, about 13 percent of the tour’s overall gross, based on tickets purchased by 87,282 fans over both nights. The gross and attendance counts are the highest box-office totals recorded at a single venue on the trek so far, but the New York ballpark is also the only stadium to host the group for two concerts.

Other stadiums on the schedule included Toronto’s Rogers Centre with a crowd of 39,920 for one performance on Aug. 19 and a gross of $3.3 million. Wrigley Field in Chicago followed with a sellout on Aug. 25 and a $4.4 million take from 37,692 sold seats, while Globe Life Field in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex sold 34,782 tickets for a $4 million gross at the end of August. Then in September, “The Tour” drew 44,889 attendees for a performance at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles with a gross of $5.5 million.

The best arena box-office success was found at four venues on the tour with Amway Center in Orlando, Florida, claiming the highest gross: a two-night haul of $3.53 million. It was one of five arenas included among the reported dates with two shows booked. The top attendance for a two-show arena engagement was 28,470 at Boston’s TD Garden, Aug. 15-16.

Then, for a single arena concert, the group’s top gross belongs to Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., with a ticket revenue total of $2.24 million based on 15,064 tickets sold at a Sept. 23 sellout. The attendance in D.C. was the third highest among the one-show arena dates, as the top ticket tally was recorded in Detroit at Little Caesars Arena with 15,532 sold seats on Aug. 24.

The tour features music from five of the group’s studio albums, beginning with 2007’s self-titled project through the most recent LP, The Album, released on May 12 prior to the tour. Following this year’s opening North American leg, the tour is set to resume in 2024 with shows booked in Oceania and Europe. Auckland, New Zealand will host the first performance of the new year on Feb. 27, and the European trek kicks off on May 18 in Norway.
