To the surprise of absolutely no one, U2 360 was named the Top Tour of 2011 in Billboard magazine's year-end review. During Billboard's reporting year, which runs from November 2010 to November 2011, U2 360 played 44 shows, sold 2,887,972 tickets and grossed $$293,281,487 -- a little more than $$100 million better than Bon Jovi's second-place total.
You probably know by now that U2 360 became the highest-grossing tour of all-time shortly before it ended in July, 2011. Billboard has a feature recapping that accomplishment and also looking at some of the other successful tours from the past year.
