Travis Scott has made touring history.

The US rapper's recently finished 'Circus Maximus World Tour', which featured a whopping 85 stops, has become the highest-grossing solo rap tour in history, according to Live Nation.

Scott's tour grossed $250 million and sold more than 2.2 million tickets in over 20 countries, according to the promoter.

“Rap may have gone backwards this year, but Travis operates outside that sandbox,” a source told Rolling Stone. “His engagement is unmatched for live shows, even when benchmarked against global pop headliners and legacy stadium acts. He’s built sustained, unprecedented global demand across music, product, and touring that functions independently of genre cycles.”

Scott's tour was in support of his recent album Utopia. The tour featured six legs over the span of two years, taking the artist to North America, Europe, Latin America, Oceania, and more.

Just last week, it was confirmed that The Weeknd has the highest-grossing tour by a male solo artist in history.

The 'After Hours Til Dawn' tour crossed the billion-dollar milestone after Live Nation announced new dates for 2026.

The tour, which commenced in 2022, achieved this record-breaking feat following ticket sales for upcoming shows across Mexico, Brazil, Europe, and the UK. The massive undertaking has sold over 7.5 million tickets across multiple continents, covering North America twice, Europe, the UK, Latin America, and Australia.

"The Weeknd continues to redefine what it means to be a global touring artist," stated Omar Al-joulani, Live Nation's president of touring. "Crossing the billion-dollar mark is a testament to his staying power and the incredible demand for his live show. Year after year, he sells out stadiums around the world, and the 'After Hours 'Til Dawn' tour now stands as one of the biggest of all time — a true reflection of his artistry and impact."
