U2 Break U.S. Concert Attendance Record

U2’s recent show at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California was not only the band’s first show to be streamed live on YouTube, it was the bands biggest U.S. concert ever.

The concert, which took place on October 25, broke the U.S. attendance record for best-attended single concert performance by one headliner.

Over 97,014 fans packed the sold out California venue, reports Billboard.

Incidentally U2 was the previous record holder, so the band broke their own attendance record.

The previous attendance record was for an estimated show attendance of 86,145 people, which was set at the band’s Sept. 25, 1987 show at the now-demolished John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia.
