AceShowbiz - The Red Hot Chili Peppers have wrapped up their multi-year, multi-continent "Unlimited Love Tour" with extraordinary results, reaching new heights in their career. According to figures reported to Billboard Boxscore, the tour sold an astounding 3.4 million tickets across 86 shows, making it the third best-selling rock tour of this decade, surpassed only by Coldplay and Elton John.

The tour concluded with a performance at the 2024 Olympics Closing Ceremony in Los Angeles, where the city received the torch from Paris for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The "Unlimited Love Tour" supported the band's eponymous album and "Return of the Dream Canteen," both of which topped the Top Rock Albums chart and the Billboard 200. The tour commenced in Sevilla, Spain, in June 2022, and spanned Europe, North America, Asia, Latin America, and Oceania before ending in Maryland Heights, Missouri, in July 2023.

While the U.S. and Canada leg generated the highest gross and attendance, Australia and New Zealand had the best per-show ticket sales, averaging 47,326 thanks to Post Malone's presence. The biggest individual engagement was the London Stadium double-header in England, where 142,000 tickets were sold.

This tour marks a significant milestone in the Chili Peppers' career, as it was their first full stadium tour and resulted in a 3.5x increase in attendance compared to their previous best tour in 2002-03. On average, the tour sold 39,761 tickets per show, a notable increase from the 14,291 in 1996.

Since their debut in 1985, the Red Hot Chili Peppers have amassed a total of 8.6 million tickets sold over 498 reported shows.

The band will return to the stage for the upcoming 2024 Olympics Closing Ceremony in Los Angeles, where they will perform alongside Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg and H.E.R. in the city's first hosting of the Paralympics.
