 Cher's recently completed farewell tour has easily become the top-grossing trek ever for a female artist, and one of the more successful outings of all time. The tour wrapped at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on April 29-30, with two sell-out nights grossing $2.8 million.
Over the course of 280 shows in North America, Cher played to 2,880,726 fans, and grossed $194,683,927. More impressively, she played to 92% of capacity and realized 90% of her gross potential on the road.
"No other female artist has ever come close to what she did," says Brad Wavra, the touring VP at Clear Channel Entertainment who promoted every North American show on the tour. "Not Madonna, not Bette Midler, not Janet, not Whitney, not Tina, because she outworked them all." With European and Australian shows included, Cher played a total of 325 dates, grossing well over $200 million.
