How much does Davido gets paid per show in 2023?
Davido revealed that he gets paid $600,000 per show in 2023, and that this has reduced the amount of shows he does because he doesn’t charge as high as that before. But now that he gets paid $600,000 per show, there are less festivals and shows for him to do because the show promoters might not afford him.
He stated however, that this has given him the time to Tour and make his own money because since there are fewer shows, he can call up “LiveNation” when he decides to go on tour.
He makes more money on tour than he does on shows because there are more dates and bigger venues.
So yes, as at 2023, Davido gets paid $600,000 for a single show, but he makes much more on tour.
