The overwhelming attendance set a new record for an independent concert, confirmed by Live Nation, the tour’s promoter.
According to their press release, “Copacabana Beach became the world’s largest dance floor as Madonna performed some of the biggest hits from her unparalleled musical catalogue.”
“The Celebration Tour not only celebrates Madonna’s four decades of iconic music, but also her unprecedented life, unique artistry and groundbreaking career.”
