From the numbers that are out there, their numbers are 1.8m+ (that's without the entire DNA tour & only includes 3 or 4 dates of LM5 tour) - Glory Days tour ALONE sold 810,810 tickets!!

GA from 2003 - 2012 SB from 2003 - 2008 LM from 2012 - 2019 But you can't directly compare GA and SB tours to LM... 2 of LM tours (which are in the 10 highest grossing girl group tours of all time) sold out European, Asian & Oceania dates. I don't think GA/SB ever went that far globally, did they? So I assume LM numbers are boosted by them and give them the advantage. Inflation has nothing to do with it, when these are the amounts of actual tickets sold/purchased and not the amount of money they grossed on the tours.

They went on a massive hiatus, brought out one final album after their solo songs, another hiatus, and a quick final tour. It's not the same. Regardless of which years you take into account, Little Mix have outdone Girls Aloud as a touring act. That's in terms of number of tickets sold, the number of dates they've done, and the fact that Little Mix have toured outside of the UK/Ireland. The same certainly goes for Sugababes, who were rather surprisingly never a major draw as a touring act. Most of their tours took place in theatres and concert halls, not arenas. They did one arena tour in the UK/Ireland (their Greatest Hits tour in 2007), but it wasn't at full capacity and it only had 13 dates (not trying to drag them, it's just a fact! The LM5 tour had 32 dates at full capacity arenas). I'm not sure whether Sugababes ever toured outside of UK/Ireland though, I know Girls Aloud never did.
