‘Michael Jackson The Immortal World Tour’ has soared to the top of the ‘Hot Tours’ tally with ticket sales income reported from arenas in eight European cities.
Combined grosses from 31 performances of the Cirque du Soleil touring production totaled $19.4 million with multiple concerts at each venue.
The most shows were held at the 17,000-seat Bercy arena in Paris (April 2-7) with a total of eight performances. The sold ticket count topped 58,000 from all eight shows in Paris.
