Only OVO Hydro had a higher total gross ($41 million) and attendance (640,000) than Dickies Arena, but the Fort Worth venue held more shows.
Following Dickies, the only other American arenas on the top 10 venues in the world with a capacity of 10,001 to 15,000, were the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas at No. 7 and Acrisure Arena in Riverside, California, at No. 9.
Dickies Arena opened in November 2019 and the first concert held at the venue was Twenty One Pilots. Since then, the venue has hosted a plethora of events, including a Kid Rock concert over the weekend.
