The 14-city stateside trek kicked off Aug. 3 at Miami's American Airlines Arena and concluded this weekend, as the pop legends performed before a full house at the Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas.
GIGANT3S rules Billboard's Hot Tour Chart, leaving Jason Aldean at No. 2, Maroon 5 at No. 3, Rascal Flatts at No. 4 and Mumford & Sons at No.5.
"We were aware that this tour would have an amazing value for fans, and I'm thrilled that it's surpassed our expectations," said Henry Cardenas, President and Chief Executive Officer of CMN. "This is indeed a major milestone for CMN."
CMN is now preparing for the Latin American tour of pop icons Chayanne and Marc Anthony Latin beginning Sept. 26.
