Originally posted by podiumboy:Ed Sheeran had 57,000 both nights at the Perth stadium. But 46,000 in Perth is still a good crowd size, I'm not gonna pick at that one.
Ed also played to 62,000 at the Adelaide Oval, whereas U2 sold 30,780. U2 did have a lot of sections blocked off. Ed's stage is smaller, and was farther back on the field than U2's was. That U2 stage was designed for stadiums with a rectangular field. The Oval type fields means U2 have to move forward with their wide screen/stage, making the capacity less. But let's not also forget, Ed Sheeran is way more popular than U2, especially Australia it seems.

Originally posted by podiumboy:In 2015 Katy Perry played to a crowd of 34,683 at the Philippine Arena, according to the wikipedia numbers. Similar to U2's audience size, supposedly, but well below the capacity of the venue. But Katy Perry, like U2, appeared to fill the entire venue.
