Swift boasts a net worth of $1.1 billion. Her meteoric earnings came from the blockbuster Eras tour, her ever-growing music catalog and her real estate portfolio. Forbes claims she is the first person to achieve billionaire status solely through songwriting and performing.
The Eras Tour
Swift’s lucrative 2023 is due primarily to the worldwide Eras Tour. The concert journey created approximately 45% of Swift’s net worth.
According to music industry trade publication Pollstar data Swift’s big venue record-breaking Eras Tour, became the first concert tour in history to earn more than $1 billion dollars. And it was funded through the sale of 4.35 million tickets.
The singer/songwriter pocketed $1.04 billion in gross ticket sales. And it boosted economies wherever she appeared.
For example, her U.S. concerts added about $4.3 billion to America’s gross domestic product for the year, Bloomberg reported.
Swift has proven to be a savvy businesswoman. Her concert movie Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour opened in October 2023 with record-breaking earnings of $92.8 million on its debut weekend.
