RÜFÜS DU SOL Make History With the Highest-Selling Electronic Tour of All Time
RÜFÜS DU SOL just rewrote the record books. The Grammy-winning live electronic trio has officially earned the title of highest-selling electronic tour of all time, thanks to the staggering success of their Inhale / Exhale World Tour. The band sold 750,000 headline tickets in 2025 and performed for more than 1.5 million fans worldwide across festivals and major arena shows — a feat unmatched by any electronic act to date.
Fresh off three sold-out hometown shows in Sydney, the trio was honored with a special plaque presented by Live Nation and Untitled, recognizing the historic scale of the tour. The achievement crowns a monumental year for RÜFÜS DU SOL, whose Inhale / Exhale era has dominated both artistically and commercially.
The album earned the group a 2026 GRAMMY nomination for Best Dance/Electronic Album, along with four ARIA Award nominations in 2025. It debuted on the Billboard 200 and delivered the group’s first U.S. dance-radio #1 with “Music Is Better”, underscoring their ability to bridge underground roots with massive mainstream appeal.
Spanning nearly 50 headline shows across four continents, the tour has solidified RÜFÜS DU SOL as one of the world’s most iconic live electronic acts, sharing arena status with legacy artists and headlining top-tier festivals like Lollapalooza. Historic moments included becoming the first electronic act to headline the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles and breaking the all-time ticket record for an Australian artist at Qudos Bank Arena.
With demand continuing to skyrocket, the trio now heads into 2026 with their biggest European and South American tours ever, adding new dates in Dublin, Dusseldorf, and Bologna due to overwhelming fan demand. Upcoming shows span world-renowned arenas such as The O2 in London, Adidas Arena in Paris, and Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona — cementing their global footprint even further.
