RÜFÜS DU SOL has made history by becoming the first electronic group to surpass $100 million in ticket sales during a single tour. The monumental achievement was celebrated as they concluded their Inhale / Exhale World Tour at the Rogers Centre in Toronto on September 5 this year.
Record-Breaking Tour Earnings
RÜFÜS DU SOL’s Inhale / Exhale World Tour grossed an astounding $158 million, marking it as the highest-grossing electronic tour ever recorded. This impressive total was achieved through 98 performances over 18 months across four continents, attracting more than 1.7 million fans. The tour’s final North American leg notably brought in $71.8 million from ticket sales alone.
Iconic Performances Across North America
The band’s tour included landmark performances at Madison Square Garden and the Kia Forum. They also transformed historic baseball stadiums like Fenway Park and Wrigley Field into vibrant dance venues, further solidifying their status as pioneers in the electronic music scene.
A Unique Live Experience
Distinguished from many electronic acts that perform behind turntables, RÜFÜS DU SOL is a full band. Their live performances feature intricate arrangements driven by Hunt on drums, George on synths, and Lindqvist on vocals, contributing to an immersive concert experience filled with audience engagement. Their creative approach has not only garnered them awards but also set them apart in the electronic music landscape.
Focus on New Music Ahead
Following the conclusion of their extensive tour, the band has announced a well-deserved break to concentrate on creating new music. Anticipation is building for their next release, as fans eagerly await the evolution of their sound.
