In 2023, Chicago's Soldier Field saw big concerts come through, including Taylor Swift and Beyoncé, each with multiple days of shows. This year, the iconic Chicago venue will host several big name acts.
To host concerts, the venue can be built in a handful of ways, including "in the round," or with the stage on the North End of the stadium. In 2023, Ed Sheeran -- with a show "in the round" -- a broke a "ticket record" at Soldier Field, with 73,000 people in attendance.

WATCH HERE"Most stages are built on the North end of the stadium where the 100 level seats are removable," a Soldier Field spokesperson said at the time. "Because of this, we lose the all the North sections and parts of the flanking sides due to no visibility of the stage."
In these cases, the spokesperson added, the stadium's capacity of 63,500 people is limited to between 54,000-57,000, depending on how many suites and seats must be removed.
