How Metallica & Billy Joel's Allegiant Shows Created A Way For Stadium Touring In 'The Great Glut Of 2022'

More than 80,000 fans and a gross of some $13.8 million over two nights by any measure in this industry is a runaway success. And that’s exactly what happened at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Feb. 25 and 26 when Metallica and Billy Joel played separately on consecutive evenings. The shows more than lived up to the billing as “Two Epic Shows…One Unforgettable Weekend,” and serve as a model for future stadium touring amidst “The Great Glut of 2022” while being a win-win-win for fans, artists, their teams and venues.
