Madonna's "Rebel Heart" concert series could be the most expensive concert for 2015, Forbes reported.
Madonna has just opened the tickets to the public last Monday, but pre-sale numbers have already placed her "among music's elite touring acts this year," according to Jesse Lawrence from Forbes.
TiqIQ says Madonna's tickets are currently sold at an average price of $452.33. There are slots sold for $79 up to $446 depending on the location and date of the concert.
Compared to Taylor Swift's "1989" concert which has an average ticket sale of $305.21, Madonna's concert also has a higher demand.
Madonna also stole the top spot from Fleetwood Mac's concert tour on January this year. Their concert average was $298.82. This means, Madonna's 2015 concert is 51.3 percent more expensive.
Madonna's concert success is not surprising at all. The 56-year-old pop icon's "MDNA" tour last 2013 made Billboard's Boxscore of all time.
"MDNA" tour has grossed $305,158,363 from the 2,212,345 attendees for all the 88 shows of the tour, according to Billboard Boxscore. They started the tour on May 31, 2013 and ended on Dec. 22 of the same year. They have reached North America, Europe and Asia for the tour.
According to Madonna's official website, Madonna's "Rebel Heart" will start touring in August and will end in Glasgow "in late December."
She will have two shows in New York: Madison Square Garden on Sept. 16 and the Barclays Center on Sept. 19. Another nearby show will be conducted on Oct. 3 at the Atlantic City Show.
Madonna will have multiple performances in Miami, Florida, L.A., Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, Vancouver, Montreal and other cities like San Juan and Puerto Rico.
After the American leg, they will head over to Europe. The European leg og the tour will start on Nov. 4 in Koln, Germany. They will then head over to Barcelona, London, Paris and Glasgow.
"Madonna continues to be one of the most successful touring artists in history - her shows are legendary and we are thrilled to have her going back on tour," Arthur Fogel, President - Global Touring and Chairman - Global Music.
Madonna offers an official fan club "Icon Live Pass" that gives exclusive members access to a concert ticket and VIP Package pre-sales. It will also include a free membership to Icon, Madonna's official Fan Club.
