In 2023, Mars amassed the highest-grossing concerts by an international artist in South Korea history, with $5.572 million each night at Olympic Stadium in Seoul on June 17-18, 2023.[18]

2024 Brazilian leg

After the great success of two performances at "The Town Festival" in September 2023, in São Paulo, Brazil, and recording an exclusive video thanking Brazilians titled "Come to Brasil", Bruno Mars announced this exclusive tour for the largest South American country.[24][25]

On May 2, through its social networks, the producer Live Nation made the official announcement of the presentations. Initially, four shows were announced: October 4 in Rio de Janeiro, October 8th and 9th in São Paulo and October 17 in Brasília. Due to high demand, all four announced shows were sold out in less than 1 hour, which led the producer to subsequently announce 4 more performances: October 5 in Rio de Janeiro, October 12th and 13th in São Paulo and October 18 in Brasília.[26][27]

On September 27, Mars released his first compilation on streaming services, as part of the tour celebrations in Brazil, titled "Bruno Mars Favoritas Da Tour 2024 Brasil", the compilation has 28 songs, including songs from the concert setlist. The Brazilian leg ended up spawning 14 dates across 5 different cities and another benefit show on October 1. So far, this is the biggest tour by an international artist in Brazil.[28] The record was held by the Mexican pop group RBD, with 13 shows, on the Tour Generación RBD, in 2006. Mars broke the record with 14.

Mars earned his highest-grossing Latin American concert of all time on October 1, 2024, with $7.054 million at Estádio do Morumbi in São Paulo. It is the highest-grossing tour in Brazilian history, with $85 million from 817,000 tickets sold in 14 shows. It is also the biggest box office report in Brazilian history, with $42.3 million from 404,000 tickets sold in 6 shows at Estádio do Morumbi in São Paulo as part of the "Bruno Mars Live".[29]
