Ye (Kanye West) performed a two-night homecoming concert series titled ‘Ye Live in Chicago’ at Soldier Field. The events, held on September 3 and 4, 2026, drew an estimated 142,000 attendees and sold 129,562 tickets, generating a total revenue of approximately $29.8 million.

The second night of the series grossed $15.76 million, setting a new record for the highest single-night revenue in the history of Soldier Field, surpassing a previous record held by Beyoncé. While these shows were among the highest-grossing rap/hip-hop nights in history, Ye’s personal single-night revenue record remains his April 2026 performance at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, which earned $18 million.

The production featured a stage design centered around a hemispherical structure simulating Earth and included approximately 20 guest artists, such as Kid Cudi, Travis Scott, and Rick Ross.
