Grammy award-winning Nigerian music icon Burna Boy has created a milestone as the inaugural African performer to achieve the largest earnings from a single concert.

As per Touring Data, an international tour tracking service, Burna Boy's “No Sign of Weakness” is now recognized as the most lucrative tour conducted by an African musician in the history of Oceania, amassing $3.1 million through 31,000 tickets sold over 4 performances.

He reached this accomplishment at the Sydney venue during his tour at Qudos Bank Arena in Australia, where he brought in $1.117 million from just one performance.

The ‘No Sign of Weakness’ tour included a total of 20 performances across three different continents, namely North America, Europe, and Oceania.

During the Oceania segment, four concerts held in Australia saw the sale of roughly 30,946 tickets, resulting in a collective revenue of $3.1 million.
