Live Nation: Number of artist managers working for subsidiaries

“We believe we are one of the world’s leading artist management companies based on the number of artists represented.”

That’s according to Live Nation‘s annual investor report, which is published towards the start of each year.

For years, Live Nation would report annually on the number of individual artist managers working for Live Nation subsidiaries.

For example, here’s a line from LN’s 2022 annual report. “As of December 31, 2022, globally we had over 90 managers providing services to more than 410 artists.”

Below you can see the data of how many managers and artists Live Nation counted within its business each year. (Please note: In each case, Live Nation reports having “over X managers” and “more than X artists”.)

However, since 2023, LN has only reported the “more than X artists” and not the “over X managers” metric.
