Live Nation Says People Prioritize Concerts Amid Rise of AI -- Market Talk

Dow Jones05-06 05:20

1720 ET - Live Nation CEO Michael Rapino says the rise of technology is driving fans to prioritize live experiences, looking for chances to be present with artists and other fans off screen. "In an increasingly digital and AI-driven world, the global desire for authentic human connection has never been stronger," Rapino says. That shift is driving up demand for concerts, with Live Nation booking over 85% of its 2026 large-venue shows through the end of April, pacing up high-single digits so far this year, it says. The company says it has also sold more than 107 million tickets through the end of last month, up 11% from the prior-year period, with double-digit growth across key venue types like stadiums, arenas, amphitheaters and festivals.(kelly.cloonan@wsj.com)
