Raye Debuts On Artist Power Index With New Arena Tour; Lady Gaga, Bad Bunny Hold Top Rankings

British singer Raye debuts in the top 10 on the Artist Power Index following the kickoff of the arena tour supporting her upcoming second studio album, This Music May Contain Hope, due in March. Dubbed “This Tour May Contain New Music,” the trek through Europe and North America launched on Jan. 22 at Atlas Arena in Łódź, Poland. With 26 performances booked in Europe, the tour will remain on the continent through March 5. Included on the itinerary are four concerts at The O2 in her hometown of London, Feb. 26-March 2. Also in the U.K., she is set to perform two-night engagements in Manchester, Glasgow and Birmingham.

Her 21-city headlining trek through the U.S. and Canada will kick off on March 31 at Channel 24 in Sacramento, California and wrap with a two-night stint at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, May 12-13. One other two-show engagement during the North American leg of the tour is planned for Radio City Music Hall in New York, April 15-16.

Joining Raye as support acts on the tour are her sisters Absolutely and Amma, both solo artists in their own right. Both also performed on stage at London’s “All Points East” festival last August when Raye was the Saturday night headliner on the final weekend of the event.

Returning to No. 1 on the Artist Power Index is Lady Gaga who moves up from the third ranking on the chart after resuming “The Mayhem Ball” on Jan. 21. Although the bulk of her 2026 tour dates are set in North American arenas from February through April, her first run of shows this year was in Japan. The opener was a two-night stadium engagement in Osaka at Kyocera Dome, Jan. 21-22, followed by four shows at Tokyo Dome through Jan. 30.

Gaga also moves up to take the top ranking on LIVE75 with an all-stadium-show ticket average of 63,799, based on her five Australian concerts during December. Her ticket total at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium was 125,941 from two shows, and a single performance at Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium drew 49,196 fans. Then, her final two concerts in 2025 were held at Sydney’s Accor Stadium with 143,859 tickets sold. Altogether her five Aussie shows grossed $61.7 million for a per-night average of $12.3 million. That figure also earns her “Heavy Hitter” status as the touring artist with the top gross average on the chart.Then, on Global Concert Pulse, ranked by gross averages over the past 90 days, Bad Bunny maintains his hold at No. 1 with a 17-show average of $8.1 million from the opening run of Latin American dates on his current world tour. Collectively, his shows have grossed over $137.6 million since the tour kicked off on Nov. 21. His most recently reported concerts occurred on Jan. 16-17 at Lima, Peru’s Estadio Nacional. With 93,612 tickets sold, the sold-out performances earned $16.8 million at the box office.
