Jessica Shy’s record Vingis Park concerts may have generated nearly €5 million in ticket revenue

Jessica Shy’s concerts in Vingis Park may have brought in nearly €5 million from ticket sales alone, according to music producer Martynas Tyla.

The estimate refers to gross revenue before deducting the costs of the stage, technical production, security, organization and other parts of the event. Tyla said the scale of the concerts showed that music could act as a powerful engine for Lithuania’s economy.

For Lithuania’s economy, this is once again proof that music is an extremely powerful economic engine.

He also pointed to the reported audience size. If 100,000 people attended over two days, he said, the event would set a Lithuanian record. He added that perhaps only the pope had previously drawn a larger one-day crowd at Vingis Park, with about 100,000 people attending during a visit.

The concerts also carried a narrative built around fairy-tale elements and themes from the legendary film The Wizard of Oz. Many people who witnessed what was described as a historic moment in Jessica Shy’s career continue to discuss the shows, including the question of how much they may have earned.
