Harry Styles‘ upcoming Madison Square Garden residency for the Together, Together Tour is already making history, as the pop star’s pre-sale for the shows garnered a massive 11.5 million registrations for tickets, Ticketmaster said on Tuesday.
Per Ticketmaster, that figure marks “the highest volume ever recorded for an artist presale” in the New York market, as well as “the largest artist presale registration performance ever seen for a single market or residency-style run” overall.
For reference, with Madison Square Garden listing its capacity at 19,500 people for an event, that totals to about 585,000 tickets available across all 30 shows Styles is set to perform at the venue during the upcoming run. That’s just 5 percent of all of those who signed up for the presale registration. Of course, it’s not clear how many of those sign-ups come from actual fans versus scalpers and bot accounts, but even if only half of those registrations were legitimate, it reflects a massive demand for one of the world’s biggest artists that may not be met by even a large residency at one market in the U.S.
The news comes as scores of Styles fans voiced their frustration this week over eye-popping ticket prices for the concerts, a trend that’s unfortunately become par for the course in the music business as tickets for the world’s biggest artists continue to climb ever higher both due to high demand from fans for shows as well as growing production costs. Styles hasn’t commented on the matter yet.
The prices haven’t seemed to curb Styles’ ticket sales, as Madison Square Garden is the only listed U.S. venue Styles plans to play in 2026. Styles added more shows to his European tour leg today, and the Together, Together tour will likely be one of the top-grossing tours of the year.
Styles’ tour comes in support of his upcoming fourth album Kiss All the Time. Disco Occasionally., which he announced earlier this month. Styles released the album’s lead single “Aperture” last week, and the album itself is due for release in March. Kiss All the Time. Disco Occasionally, follows Styles’ third album Harry’s House, which won the Grammy for album of the year in 2023 and featured his global smash “As It Was.”
