Top Tours By Co-Headliners of All Time: 40 Biggest

Seeing your favorite artist on tour can be transcendent. Seeing two of your favorite artists on the same night? Even better.

Over Billboard Boxscore’s four decades, like-minded artists have paired together to combine forces as co-headliners. Here, we’re looking at the biggest team-ups ever with a list of the 40 biggest co-headline tours in Boxscore history.

To qualify for this list, the tour must run for at least 10 shows. That excludes brief collaborations by Post Malone and Red Hot Chili Peppers in 2023 in Australia, and Billy Joel with Sting in 2024-25. But no need to fret, as both Joel and Sting make the list with separate co-headliners.

Several artists on the list appear multiple times. Jay-Z has toured with Beyoncé, Mary J. Blige, and many more through the years. Journey has paired with Def Leppard, The Doobie Brothers, and Steve Miller Band. Enrique Iglesias toured with Pitbull on multiple occasions in the 2010s, with Ricky Martin in 2021, and then with both on The Trilogy Tour (2023-24). Further, certain pairs repeat, highlighted by the many successive editions of Billy Joel and Elton John’s Face to Face tours.

Per the case of The Trilogy Tour (Iglesias, Martin & Pitbull), the list also includes tours with three equally billed artists. There’s one other trio on the ranking – a trifecta of cross-generational rock bands that used their combined powers to level up from arenas to stadiums.

Two tours in the top 40 are ongoing. Tina Fey & Amy Poehler launched The Restless Leg Tour in 2022, playing theaters and then arenas, mixing stand-up, improv and Q&A amid a sea of pop and rock stars. And Kendrick Lamar and SZA kicked off the Grand National Tour in April, and will hop the pond next month for a leg of shows in Europe.
