Allegiant Stadium has been crowned the highest grossing stadium in the United States and the second highest in the world, capping a year packed with blockbuster shows and big ticket spectacles in Las Vegas. Between October 2024 and September 2025, the venue pulled in roughly $281 million in gross event revenue and welcomed more than 1.7 million fans. That stretch featured WrestleMania, a major boxing card and a run of stadium sized concerts. For a city built on live entertainment, the ranking is one more sign that big name tours are still steering visitors and dollars onto the Strip.
Billboard’s year end Boxscore data put Allegiant at No. 1 among U.S. stadiums, with events at the venue grossing about $281 million across the Oct. 1, 2024 to Sept. 30, 2025 reporting year, according to Las Vegas Review-Journal. That total nudged past every other American stadium and left Allegiant trailing only one building on the global list.
Blockbuster calendar fueled the climb
Promoters kept Allegiant’s schedule stacked with high demand events, from WrestleMania 41 to the Canelo Álvarez vs. Terence Crawford boxing match, plus a string of stadium level concerts that sold tens of thousands of tickets at a time. Shows from Beyoncé, Post Malone, Coldplay, AC/DC and Kendrick Lamar all helped push those Boxscore receipts higher. Local coverage of the Billboard ranking pointed to that star heavy lineup as the main engine behind the stadium’s surge in ticket revenue, per 8 News Now.
Numbers behind the money
Data compiled by the Raiders and shared with local authorities show about 1.7 million fans passed through Allegiant for ticketed events in that Boxscore year, and the franchise’s 2025 impact report estimates roughly $1.1 billion in economic activity tied to stadium programming. The same report says about 62 percent of those visitors came to Las Vegas primarily for an Allegiant event, underscoring the venue’s pull as a tourism magnet. These attendance and impact figures were highlighted in local reporting on Billboard’s year end list, according to Las Vegas Review-Journal.
Local leaders weigh in
Raiders president Sandra Douglass Morgan said earning the recognition "for the second year in a row is an extraordinary honor" and framed it as a reflection of the organization’s collective effort on and off the field. Steve Hill of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority called Allegiant’s busy slate a "driving force" in keeping Las Vegas atop the sports and entertainment heap. Those reactions were included in local coverage of the Billboard ranking, with 8 News Now publishing the statements.
What’s next for the stadium
The stadium’s official calendar shows no sign of easing up through 2026, with major tours and marquee events already locked in. On deck are Luke Combs in March, WrestleMania’s return in April and stadium runs from Ed Sheeran, AC/DC, Guns N’ Roses, Morgan Wallen and Foo Fighters later in the year. Those bookings suggest Boxscore totals will stay strong as touring acts continue to build Las Vegas into their routing plans. The venue posts its full event schedule on its site for ticket and date details; the current lineup is listed at Allegiant Stadium.
For local businesses and city officials, the ranking functions as both bragging rights and a budgeting variable. More stadium events translate into more hotel nights, restaurant tabs and ground transportation. Whether this prize turns into broader and sustained gains for the city will hinge on how promoters, teams and local partners keep the calendar full and the fan experience running smoothly.
