Who Set the Record for the Highest Single-Show Attendance at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts?
In addition to being the home of the New England Patriots, Gillette Stadium is the largest concert venue in New England.
Actually, it is one of the largest concert venues in the northeast.
In the past, the venue has hosted massive artists like Metallica, Luke Combs, P!nk, Taylor Swift, and Kenny Chesney.
Have you ever wondered which artist hosted the most well-attended single-show concert at Gillette Stadium?
As a country music fan, I always assumed it was Kenny Chesney. It is no secret that Kenny Chesney loves New England and his a frequent visitor to Gillette Stadium. Chesney, along with Megan Moroney, Uncle Kracker, and the Zac Brown Band, closed out the Sun Goes Down 2024 tour with a trio of shows at the venue.
Even though he has set many attendance records at Gillette Stadium, Chesney does not hold the current record for the most attended show at the stadium.

Of course, the number of seats available on the field is determined by the size and configuration of the stage.
Apparently, Ed Sheeran had a much smaller stage.
