It’s no surprise that a tour featuring two of the most successful and beloved artists over the last fifteen or so years is doing well at the box office, but the fact that with only 20 shows announced Jay Z and Beyonce‘s ‘On The Run’ tour is already on track to become the second highest grossing tour of all time is pretty amazing. According to Forbes, with the tour hitting an estimated $100 million in ticket sales, the husband and wife are currently looking at roughly a $5 million gross per show. Check out the chart below to see which other tour made more, and who Jay and Bey passed up with this one.
