The entertainment magazine named the Las Vegas venue as its No. 2 stadium worldwide for live events and No. 1 in the United States.

Only Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City had a higher total gross, and that was with 26 shows.
Stars like the Rolling Stones, Billy Joel & Sting, George Straight and Morgan Wallen headlined concerts at Allegiant Stadium last year.
“We are thrilled to be recognized by Billboard as the top stadium in the United States and the #2 stadium worldwide,” Andy Gorchov, the stadium’s general manager, said in a statement. “We want to thank the incredible artists, athletes and promoters and the unwavering enthusiasm of the fans that truly make Las Vegas and Allegiant Stadium such a special place to be.”
This year, Las Vegas expects to welcome AC/DC, Post Malone, Kendrick Lamar and SZA, Coldplay and Shakira, plus WrestleMania 41.
