The Friday File: The Las Vegas Sphere, which opened years late in 9/23 and almost $1 billion over budget, is now profitable, and is the world’s highest earning arena. Last year it grossed $379 million on 1.7 million tickets. That’s an average of 4,660 attendees/day at $223/ticket. Their key to success, old bands with rich fans and very long residences that allow for spectacularly high-end visual flair.
