Zach Bryan Sets Gillette Stadium Attendance Record

Zach Bryan broke the Gillette Stadium attendance record on Oct. 3, performing for 73,538 fans during his "With Heaven On Tour," which was the largest crowd for any event in the venue's history. The show was the second of two nights at the stadium, and the Foxborough shows are part of Bryan's biggest tour yet, spanning more than 40 dates across North America and Europe beginning in March 2026.

The milestone adds to a record-setting year for Bryan. On September 27, 2025, he became the first artist ever to play Michigan Stadium, drawing 112,408 fans, the largest ticketed concert audience in U.S. history. That show surpassed the previous mark of 110,905, set by George Strait in Texas in 2024, and also set a single-night merchandise sales record of $5 million.
