Crowd Sizes on V4 Tour?

[Roland of Gilead]

After seeing the many shots of Sao Paulo 1, I was completely blown away by the sheer size of the crowd. I knew there were going to be some big crowds for these V4 shows, but when you actually see it in a photograph it is still an incredible sight.

So, does anyone know the actual sizes of these crowds?

I wish to know the Mexico gigs already done as well as the future gigs in Chile and Argentina.

Thanks for the help.

I believe Brazil was to be about 73,000 per show

 

[kach]

Almost 80,000 people for each concert in México City.

Believe it or not, there is apparently video, pro-shot of Reggio Emilia, the show were 152,000 U2 fans were in attendance... imagine that!

Official figures for attendance and GROSS will start coming in soon for these shows from amusement business. Its possible figures for the Mexico shows will be posted on www.billboard.com tomorrow evening in the "Top Concerts" section. But it may also be another couple weeks or so before they start to post these figures.

 

[Roland of Gilead]

Thanks for the input.

As for future gigs, both Sydney shows have now sold out - so thats aound the 68,000 - 70,000 mark each night. Estimates for total Aussie sales is 360,000 over 6 gigs.

So basically Brisbane is going to be one of the smaller shows at 50, 000!

I thought Sydney was closer to 80k?

Does anyone know the what the attendances will be in Melbourne, Adelaide & Auckland?

Auckland:
Brisbane: 50 000
Melbourne:
Adelaide:
Sydney: 70 000 per night

A lot of the European shows were this big.

Croke Park was 80,000, the Nou Camp in Barcelona was 120,000.

Yea i thought sydney was more aswell

Barcelona wasn't that big, actually. Sting2's posted the official figures over on the Peeling Off The Dollar Bills forum. I can't remember them exactly, but Croke Park was the biggest of all the European shows, with a bit over 82,000 people per night.

Auckland:
Brisbane: 50 000
Melbourne:
Adelaide:
Sydney: 70 000 per night

I don't claim the following figures are right, but they should be in the ballpark, maybe a few thousand high or low (I'm aiming for low).

Auckland: 39,000 x2
Brisbane: 49,000
Melbourne: 56,000 x2
Adelaide: 55,000
Sydney: 70,000 x2

Those numbers (ignoring Auckland) gives a total of 356,000, just 4,000 below puppy's statement that the six Aussie gigs have sold a total of 360,000. So your 50,000 for Brisbane is probably right, plus say another thousand in Adelaide, an extra 500+ per night in Melbourne, and you're getting really close to that 360,000.

Mexico City show was near or around 90,000. I believe is the biggest stadium for this tour.
