sales amounted to \u20ac807.2 million ($954 million), marking a new all-time high according to the 2026 Yearbook of the Asociaci\u00f3n de Promotores Musicales (APM), with an 11% growth compared to 2024. This activity is divided into three parts: direct impact accounts for \u20ac1.261 billion ($1.491 billion) within venues, from ticketing to merchandise and VIP experiences; indirect impact totals \u20ac3.210 billion ($3.797 billion), tied to spending on accommodation, dining, and transportation; and induced impact adds \u20ac1.341 billion ($1.586 billion) derived from the multiplier effect of wages and profits.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tMusic ticket sales are on par with matchday revenues from professional soccer in Spain, which reached \u20ac902 million ($1.067 billion) according to LaLiga in the 2024-25 season. Including segments not covered by the APM, live music would approach \u20ac1.005 billion ($1.188 billion). Compared to cinema, the gap is wider: music generated 78% more revenue in 2025, with \u20ac453 million ($535 million) according to Comscore. Over two years, music grew by 34%, while cinema declined by 6.5%.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tBy region, the sector remains concentrated in the main markets. Madrid leads the activity with \u20ac237.2 million ($280 million), accounting for 29.4% of the total. It is followed by Catalonia with \u20ac163.2 million ($193 million) and Andalusia with \u20ac108.7 million ($128 million). Together, these three regions account for 63% of the national revenue, with Madrid and Barcelona alone concentrating nearly 46%.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThis is the third consecutive year that SFTL and Incentiva Music have published this study. The previous edition estimated an impact of \u20ac5.314 billion in 2024. The methodology follows the Oxford Economics approach and measures the total economic activity of the sector.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ubpass.co\/billboard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><br \/>\n  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/2HpFicp.png\" alt=\"Billboard VIP Pass\" style=\"max-width: 100%;height: auto\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/pro\/live-music-in-spain-generates-over-6-8-billion-2025\/\">Aller \u00e0 la source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For every euro spent on a concert ticket, more than seven euros are generated in the economy.
