New York follows closely with 10, before San Francisco with nine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tGeographical determinations were based on Neilsen\u2019s designated market area (DMA) regions. Year-end charts are based on figures reported to Billboard Boxscore for shows that took place between Oct. 1, 2024, and Sept. 30, 2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tVegas tops two of the six venue charts, at No. 1 on Top Venues (15,001+ capacity) with Sphere, and No. 1 on Top Venues (2,501-5k capacity) with The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. New York takes top honors among venues with a capacity of 5,001-10,000 with midtown Manhattan\u2019s Radio City Music Hall. The other three charts are ruled by a stadium in Mexico City, an arena in Austin, and a theater in Nashville.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"pmc-protected-embed-2\" class=\"pmc-protected-embed\" width=\"100%\" height=\"597\" src=\"https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/HGq6O\/3\/\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tAll of Vegas\u2019 11 charting venues are located in the city proper.
