On Sunday night (December 8), Taylor Swift performed her final show on her record-setting Eras Tour, which grossed more than $2 billion over the course of its 21-month, 149-show run. During that time, Swift handed out $197 million in bonuses to the cast and crew of The Eras Tour. These bonuses were issued to everyone associated with the tour, from the musicians and dancers who shared the stage with Swift every night, to the truck drivers, caterers, instrument techs, merchandise team, lighting, sound, and production staff, carpenters, security, choreographers, pyrotechnics, hair and make-up stylists, wardrobe, physical therapists, and video team. Swift’s production company, Taylor Swift Touring, confirmed that 10,168,008 people attended The Eras Tour, and that it sold $2,077,618,725 in total tickets, making it the bestselling tour of all time and “double the gross ticket sales of any other concert tour in history.” (People)
