Pink Flies Into Record Books With The ‘Beautiful Trauma World Tour’

Published: Tuesday 20th Aug 2019 by Sam

This week saw Pink bid adieu to her ‘Beautiful Trauma World Tour,’ but it also saw her wave hello to a number of records that she’s just broken.

Full story below…

Announced in 2017, the global trek was erected in support of the Pop star’s like-titled album.

The project went on to debut at #1 on the Billboard 200, with career-best first-week sales of 408,000 – a sizeable proportion of which were the result of an album-tour ticket bundle.

Few, however, could have predicted the the performance of the trek. But, ever the Pop underdog, Pink delivered and then some.

From its first show on March 1st 2018 through to its last on August 19th 2019, the tour has grossed a colossal $397.3 million and sold 3,088,647 – per Billboard Box Score.

The feat means the ‘Beautiful Trauma World Tour’ is now the 10th highest grossing tour of all-time. 

It’s also the 2nd highest grossing tour by a female and is only bested by Madonna’s  2008-09 ‘Sticky & Sweet Tour’ ($408 million). 

Comprised of 157 shows in North America, Europe, and Australasia, the trek was unique in that not only did it encompass the push for the ‘Beautiful Trauma’ LP, latter legs also were also seized to plug follow-up album ‘Hurts 2B Human’ – which dropped this April.

That’s all folks! Thank you to everyone around the world for a beautiful, magical, challenging, fun, emotional, soulful tour. This was 2 1/2 years of blood, sweat, and many tears. A lot of happy ones, too. It has been an honor and a pleasure to play with you. My team… from the stage builders to the sound and lights and video and dancers and band and safety and stunts and everyone in between is hands down the best crew of any tour in the world. I am incredibly grateful to work with them. I love them with all of my heart, and I love all of you, too. Til next time. That’s a wrap! #beautifultraumaworldtour💞 #157 #gratitude

Some artists have “one song,” others have “that album,” yet Pink very much has established “a career.” An illustrious one too. Her journey has been (and continues to be) fascinating, primarily because – unlike some of her peers – it hasn’t been linear. It’s had its peaks, troughs, its blows and its booms. All of which render moments like this oh so resonating.

Congrats!

      Formation World Tour grossed $260 million in 6 months darling. Imagine what it would have grossed if it went on for another 18 months. Bye dummy.

    Congrats Pink!

  3. Prissy Personified August 20, 2019

    I guess she did gross that much if she toured for almost 3 years straight.
    Congrats to her still. Touring is no joke, and Pink is a wonderful performer though she’s very problematic at times.

    • Kage August 20, 2019

      It was a year and 5 months of touring

      • Prissy Personified August 20, 2019

        I’m going by her caption that stated 2 1/2 years. Regardless, after touring arenas for a year and a half you’ll gross more.

    She is so hard working. She is underrated as hell, dont get me wrong,she still selling albums and singles but she is not being praised the same way we praise people like beyonce and Rihanna. Awards shows come around, they barely nominate her, she has only 2 Grammys. We need to celebrate pink more.

    She puts in a lot of work in her live shows.
    I’m happy for her.

    • busy bee August 20, 2019

      Because she’s a d*** and all her music sounds the same. Only middle aged soccer moms give a f*** about Pink.

      • ??? August 20, 2019

        lmaooooo aww you mad cuz she ended that flopped roach? lmfaoooooooo

      • busy bee August 20, 2019

        F*** you troll. The only thing Pink ended was her husbands manhood.

  5. Tyty August 20, 2019

    Happens when you tour for more than a year look at ed Sheerans tour gross. She is talented wish she would go back to making music similar to her debut album though…

  6. Gee August 20, 2019

    The fact that Pink can march to the beat of her own drum and still come out on the other side bigger and better is a true testament of her dedication, and the loyalty of her fans. Congratulations to Pink on all of her success she definitely deserves it all.

  7. Barbz August 20, 2019

    Wow she surpassed Beyonce and Jay-Z combined effort of ’ $260 million first, now Taylor Swift’s $345

    Congrats Pink

  8. What would Whitney do. WWWD August 21, 2019

    She needs to fly with some new pictures

  9. #TheTruth August 21, 2019

    Before I say anything, congratulations to Pink because she really puts on a show and sings live.

    That being said, why do some of ya’ll have that atrocious thirst to constantly compare artists accomplishments with one another ?

    If you want to do it, be smart. You have to compare with the same number of dates and the average gross, on tours that are comparable of course (arenas, stadiums, etc). Once you do that, you might be surprised.
