Explained in plain English

Why do artists add shows?

When an artist like Bruno Mars announces a concert, tickets often sell out very quickly due to high demand. Promoters and artists then look at adding extra dates to meet this demand and allow more fans to see the show. This strategy maximises revenue and fan satisfaction, especially for popular acts, by making the most of their time in a city.
