Bieber performed to 221,206 fans and grossed US$6.2 million (AU$8.2m), topping Billboard’s global Hot Tours list (March 28-April 3) ahead of Eric Clapton, Elton John, Ariana Grande and the Dixie Chicks.

Bieber’s show at Sydney’s ANZ Stadium to a crowd of 83,500 logged the top box office count for Billboard‘s Hot Tours list, which is ranked by gross.
