Khalid’s
‘Spirit’
Shines
Khalid (above) hits the
Boxscore chart at No. 32
with a two-night stint
at Toronto’s Scotiabank
Arena Aug. 6-7 as part
of the 35-date North
American leg of his
Free Spirit World Tour.
According to figures re-
ported to Billboard Box-
score, the two shows
grossed $1.5 million and
sold 25,000 tickets.
In all, the North
American tour leg
grossed $29.5 million,
tripling the report-
ed $9.6 million from
Khalid’s Roxy Tour in
- While he had
never grossed $1 million
from a single engage-
ment prior to 2019, this
summer’s run surpassed
the seven-figure mark
in eight U.S. markets.
The tour’s highlight was
a double-header at the
Staples Center in Los
Angeles June 25-26.
