Michael Jackson Immortal Tour: The Sixth Tour of 2012

The Michael Jackson Immortal tour ended 2012 by placing sixth on Pollstar’s list of top tours.

Pollstar is the only reliable source that accurately compiles annual tour statistics worldwide and ranks the data based on US dollars. Pollstar has recently released a list of the world’s top fifty tours, in which the Michael Jackson Immortal tour / Cirque du Soleil is placed at number six.

In the first half of 2012, this tour was the top-selling tour in North America and the third biggest tour in the world. (News)

Immortal, in cooperation with Cirque du Soleil, brings Michael’s art, dance, and vocals to the stage. In 2012, Immortal sold $140.2 million worth of tickets. The best-selling tour in the world in 2012, with $300 million in sales, was Madonna’s tour. However, it should be considered that Madonna’s ticket prices were much higher than those of other tours. For example, while the number of attendees at Bruce Springsteen’s tour was twice that of Madonna’s tour, because Springsteen’s ticket prices were half of Madonna’s, Madonna still earned the title of best-selling tour of 2012.
