On Sunday night Taylor Swift's record-setting Eras Tour came to an end in front of another packed house at BC Place in Vancouver.
After 149 shows across five continents in a tour spanning 18 months, Swift delivered a final message to fans who showed up for the epic conclusion of the tour. “I want to thank every single one of you for being a part of the most thrilling chapter of my entire life to date — my beloved Eras Tour," she said.
During the final show, Swift announced more than 10 million fans across the world showed up to her concerts over the past 18 months. The final numbers from the show revealed she was accurate with that number - and showed how much money the tour generated from ticket sales alone.

Here's more from the New York Times:
Through its 149th and final show, which took place in Vancouver, British Columbia, on Sunday, Swift’s tour sold a total of $2,077,618,725 in tickets. That’s two billion and change — double the gross ticket sales of any other concert tour in history and an extraordinary new benchmark for a white-hot international concert business.
Those figures were confirmed to The New York Times for the first time by Taylor Swift Touring, the singer’s production company. While the financial details of the Eras Tour have been a subject of constant industry speculation since tickets were first offered more than two years ago — through a presale so in-demand it crashed Ticketmaster’s system — Swift has never authorized disclosure of the tour’s numbers until now.
The sales from Swift's Eras Tour doubled the amount of money brought in by Coldplay's Music of the Spheres, which held the record until late last year when Swift's tour broke it - and kept adding to the historic total.
