Sabrina Carpenter, Charli xcx and Gracie Abrams
Veteran CAA agents and new Global Touring co-heads Darryl Eaton, Rick Roskin and Emma Banks weren't the only ones moving up this year, as the company and its clients celebrated a number of major touring milestones in 2024.
CAA booked more than 38k shows over the last year, highlighted by career-best box-office numbers from female powerhouses Sabrina Carpenter, Charli xcx and Gracie Abrams. Also big in the pop space in terms of touring growth were Doja Cat, Kelsea Ballerini, Tate McRae, Melanie Martinez and Keshi.
The company scored with European and North American stadium tours from perennial rockers AC/DC, blink-182, Green Day and Red Hot Chili Peppers, and also enjoyed success in stateside arenas and sheds with Stevie Nicks, Journey and Twenty One Pilots.
Country stars Jelly Roll and Cody Johnson became legit arena-level draws, while dance music vets The Chainsmokers lit up everywhere from Las Vegas clubs to international stadiums.
Not to be outdone, Anyma is the first electronic act to play Sphere as part of a multi-show residency in December and January.
However, one of CAA's biggest 2024 acquisitions amounted to a homecoming—former agent Cheryl Paglierani came back into the fold with a client list led by Post Malone, 21 Savage and Dominic Fike.
