Concert tour

[5] Autoweek magazine estimated 30 to 50 trucks were required by Taylor Swift's The 1989 World Tour to bring all the stage, sound equipment, instruments, props, and clothes.

[6] When Beyoncé visited the United Kingdom with her 2016 The Formation World Tour, it took seven Boeing 747 air freighters and a fleet of more than 70 trucks to get her stage set and other gear to the venues.

The logistics phase of that tour did not include transportation of the backstage staff, musicians, performers, and the singer herself.

[13][14] Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour (2023–2024) is a retrospective of her career to that point, where each act of the concert represents one of her albums.

"[35] A concert residency concept is offered as an alternative to performers who just need to stay in one venue and the fans come to see them.

[36] The concept has been revitalized in the 21st century by Canadian superstar Céline Dion with the success of her A New Day... residency (2003–2007).

Her residency introduced a new form of theatrical entertainment, a fusion of song, performance art, innovative stage craft, and state-of-the-art technology.

She managed to popularize the Las Vegas residency as a desirable way for top artists to essentially tour in place, letting their fans come to them.
