MUNICH, DE (CelebrityAccess)—The music world looked to Munich this August, where the groundbreaking Adele residency has set multiple records. Over 730,000 fans worldwide came to see the “Rolling in the Deep” talent in a venue and show tailor-made for her. More than two-thirds of the visitors celebrated before and after the performances in the adjacent, first-of-its-kind Adele World with its diverse entertainment and catering offerings.
With over 730,000 tickets sold, the Adele shows registered the highest attendance of any concert residency outside Las Vegas.
Further record-breaking stats from the residency:
• The pop-up stadium in Munich, which has 73,000+ seats, is the largest temporary arena ever built.
• The continuous LED wall measuring 4159.7 m2 was the largest to date.
• The Adele World, with more than 500,000 visitors over 75,000 square meters, was the first of its kind, with nothing comparable ever having been built.
The Adele 10-night residency gave the Munich economy a spending boost of more than 540 million Euros, as the head of Munich’s economic department, Clemens Baumgärtner, confirmed.
The residency was critically acclaimed as a milestone in music history, attracting visitors from all over the world and dominating international headlines. The show, with its brilliant sound and the gigantic LED wall designed by Stufish, carried Adele’s charismatic performances right into the last corner of the arena, which was designed by Florian Wieder.
Organizer Marek Lieberberg, Managing Director (MD) of Live Nation GSA, said, “The flair of the unique Adele performances combined perfectly with the special atmosphere of this city. Her music, the fans and Munich came together in a rarely experienced way. It was trendsetting: the harmony of concerts in a never-before-seen visualization in an epic custom-built pop-up colosseum with perfect open-air sound, created for Adele fans. A joyful, cheerful and peaceful pre-Oktoberfest.”
During one of her recent Munich performances, a fan shared a video of the singer on social media, where she said she’s planning a hiatus from music after her Las Vegas residency.
“I have ten shows to do, but after that, I will not see you for an incredibly long time, and I will hold you dear in my heart.”
Her residency at The Colosseum Theater at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas began in November 2022, and her last shows will run from October 25 to November 23.
