Sir Elton John's farewell tour is the highest-grossing concert series of all time. The singer embarked on his “Farewell Yellow Brick Road” shows in September 2018 and though the run isn't over yet, figures reported to Billboard Boxscore show he has already grossed $817.9 million across 278 shows so far, making it the first tour to cross the $800 million benchmark. The record was initially set by Ed Sheeran in 2019, when his “Divide” tour grossed $776.4 million towards the end of the 258-show run, putting him ahead of U2's “The 360 Tour,” which grossed $736.4 million.
