Travis Scott is set to etch his name deeper into the annals of Hip-Hop history with his Circus Maximus Tour.
According to Touring Data, Scott’s global journey is on track to become one of the most profitable tours in rap history.
Following additional dates in Europe, the Circus Maximus tour is now projected to generate between $130-140 million from over 1.1 million tickets across 61 shows.
This will make it the second highest-grossing tour by a rapper in history, as reported on X, formerly known as Twitter.
This figure means that Travis Scott’s tour will outperform other significant rap tours like Kendrick Lamar’s The Big Steppers Tour, 50 Cent’s Final Lap Tour, and the Aubrey & The Three Migos Tour by Drake and Migos.

However, the overall record is still held by Drake with his It’s All a Blur Tour, which has amassed an impressive $215 million in revenue from 50 of 80 shows.
In November 2023, before their rivalry escalated into a full-blown feud, Drake took the title belt from Kendrick Lamar to claim the highest-grossing Hip Hop tour ever. Lamar had broken the record a few months earlier when his Big Steppers Tour surpassed $110 million in ticket sales.
However, he was soon overshadowed by Drake’s It’s All a Blur Tour, which kicked off last summer and resumed earlier this year with support from J. Cole and Lil Durk. The tour rakes in nearly $130 million from just 30 shows.
Meanwhile, 50 Cent’s Final Lap entered the race earlier this year when its revenue reached $84 million, which has since increased to $105 million. The G-Unit boss responded to the news on Instagram at the time, taking a chance to poke fun at his ex-girlfriend and baby mother, Daphne Joy, over allegations that she was paid by Diddy as a sex worker.
Billed as 50 Cent’s farewell as a touring artist, the Final Lap Tour started in North America last July and later expanded to Europe, Australia, and Saudi Arabia, among other regions.
