Historical Average Concert Ticket Prices
To illustrate the trend and the data used for the average calculation, here's a breakdown of average concert ticket prices by year:

As the table shows, the average price climbed from $85.03 in 2018 to $122.84 in 2023. This increase contributes to the overall average calculated.
