Luminate

At Luminate, we pride ourselves on being the leading data company in the entertainment space and are dedicated to identifying data and trends that tell multifaceted stories framed by today's culture. Our reports, masterfully curated and crafted by our expert team of researchers and analysts for our clients, are essential to that mission. 

The Shared Impact of Touring and Streaming

In 2023, Luminate’s U.S. Music 360 survey found that concert attendance and consumer expenditures have soared since the pandemic waned in 2022.1 Furthermore, Billboard’s year-in-touring report detailed record-high global concert grosses and attendance, with revenue among the year’s top 100 tours up 53% from before the pandemic.

The year was so colossal for the touring industry that Luminate — the preeminent entertainment data and insights company — and Billboard partnered to dig deeper. Together, they mapped a sample of artists’ live events to their local and national streaming volumes to evaluate how one might impact the other.
