Billboard Boxscore reported that Wallen's total for this year was $260,355,870 thanks to the massive success of the 44 dates of "One Night at a Time Tour" which had been extended up to 2024 so more fans will get a chance to watch the musician perform his biggest hits.

Coming in third place for the most successful country tours is George Strait who earned $107,521,444 in touring revenue.

She's the only women within the top 5 list, and it appears that 2023 was a busy year for her as she performed in over 52 dates.
