Why this is different

Most economic impact reports are based on surveys. This one is not.

The standard approach: a consultant stands outside a venue for a few nights, surveys 200 fans, and extrapolates to the whole season. The report costs $30,000–$100,000, takes 3–6 months to produce, and is out of date before it is printed.

revolution.fan collects verified data from every event: GPS check-ins at the door, real ticket purchases, and fan home locations. Tourist vs. local is calculated precisely, not estimated from a small sample. Every report on this page reflects what actually happened — and you can run it again tomorrow with updated numbers.

How the report is calculated

Direct Revenue

Ticket sales and ancillary spend captured from verified fan check-ins and purchases on the platform — actual transactions, not estimates.

Multiplier Effect

Direct revenue flows to venue suppliers, suppliers pay workers, workers spend locally. RIMS II Type II multipliers from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis model each layer.

Tourism Attribution

Fans traveling more than 50 miles are counted as tourists. Their $185 estimated daily spend covers lodging, food, and attractions beyond the ticket.

The Headline Number

Total economic output is what you present to city councils and funding bodies: the full dollar value live music returns to the regional economy.
