Morgan Wallen's One Night At A Time tour has been crowned the highest grossing tour of 2023, with Luke Combs’ world tour following close behind in second place.

The results, announced via Billboard Boxscore's year-end listings, highlight the ‘Everything I Love’ megastar's dominance over the genre throughout 2023, which was enhanced following the release of Morgan's acclaimed March album, One Thing At A Time.

Over the course of the year, Morgan Wallen's One Night At A Time tour has pulled in a staggering $230 million, while Luke Combs’ run of shows racked up a tally of $133 million.

Morgan and Luke remain locked in a fascinating battle at the pinnacle of country music, with both artists jostling for the status of being biggest artist in the genre.

At the moment, it's safe to say Morgan Wallen has earned the No. 1 spot, with the ‘Last Night’ hitmaker having earned a plethora of all-genre accolades at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards, including Top Billboard 200 Album and Top Hot 100 Song.
