The summer touring market was hit by a Country heat wave, as top acts including Florida Georgia Line, Thomas Rhett, Chris Stapleton and Luke Bryan dominate the season's ticket sales.
With each act completing a handful of sellouts at amphitheaters across the U.S., these Country heavyweights moved about 15-20k tickets per show this summer.
Rhett and FGL are both touring in support of their fourth studio albums released earlier this year, while Stapleton and Bryan have become bona fide headliners filling arenas in most markets.
