What band has sold the most concert tickets of all time?
Like so many Quora questions, this is phrased a bit imprecisely, but I read this as total number of TICKETS over the lifetime of the band.The answer to this is not as easy as the person listing The Rolling Stones implies. The question was number of TICKETS, not GROSS REVENUE. Until Garcia’s demise, the Grateful Dead held the record and may still hold the record. That’s because they did something like 50 concerts a year for a very long time. Revenue is not the same as number of tickets. The Stones had some huge tours, but they did not tour every year. They charged a lot for the tickets. The concerts cost a lot to produce. Any time you do a “lifetime” assessment, you also have to adjust for inflation if you do revenue. Again, I take the question as number of tickets, not revenue.For a single date, there was some Brazilian boy band that sold 200K tickets for ONE CONCERT.Altamont Speedway Free Festival depicted in the Gimme Shelter movie) was a free concert, but 300K showed up there. But, that wasn’t one band.The other thing is many instinctively go with a rock band as the answer. I would too, but for one year, for example, you have Garth Brooks selling 6 MILLION in one year (again, number of tickets, not revenue).Like the Grateful Dead, you have the Dave Matthews Band. They never had a single year where they sold the most tickets, but they played every year. From the LA Times (emphasis added): “The Dave Matthews Band not only ended up with the highest cumulative concert gross from 2000 through 2009 -- at $529.1 million -- but the group also sold significantly more tickets during that period than any other act.”The fun of thinking about this as TICKETS not revenue, is that it is hard to come up with a definitive answer. As the music industry continues to change, artists continue to make more money from concerts than from “unit” sales of the music (streaming/CDs/etc.). It will be interesting to see if this changes the dynamic over time for total tickets sold.
How fast can you sell your concert ticket on Ticketmaster+?
I got 5 tickets this morning for Bruno Mars concert which costs $350. I got so excited and forgot that my sister's college grad is going to be that evening as well. Of course, ticketmaster won't refund my money. But the ticketmaster guy advised me to sell it through ticketmaster. Have you guys ever sold a ticket through ticketmaster?

Which concert is harder to go to? BTS or EXO?
I myself am not an EXO fan - though I do like their songs I wouldn’t go out of my way to get my hands on tickets - I have a colleague who is and keeps telling me like every second day how impossible it is to get tickets. And she is litereally willing to go anywhere in the world for a concert. I myself have been to a BTS concert in Macau last year, which happened to take place while I was travelling through Korea. I was quite surprised to find geting tickets was not as impossible as I figured. Especially since their Taiwan concerts sold out about 10 minutes after going on sale.After I had bought my tickets for Macau I checked the venue again a week or so later and you could still get tickets - not a lot but still single ones here and there. (and obviously not the best or the cheaptest categories either). So I guess it depends on location. While the Taiwan and Korea concerts felt like being sold out before tickets even went on sales I guess there are a few locations where you don’t have to be the first in queue to get tickets. Or I was just lucky, seeing that their US concerts and Japan concerts sell out super fast as well.I also believe that the unpleasant thing called ticket scrapers make it additionally very hard for fans. Since they buy tickets in large bulks to sell them onwards for ridicolous outragous prices. But that is a problem I guess which applies to every big artist.
