Abstract: Abstract Nowadays, people pay more and more attention to concerts. It gradually becomes a form of entertainment and a significant part of consumption especially for young people. It can provide people with a channel for emotional release, especially after the pandemic. Meanwhile, with the development of entertainment culture, more and more singers have emerged, so the popularity of concerts is inevitable. However, the impact and significance of concerts on the economy is rarely discussed. Thus, this study will focus on the components of concerts and how concerts will bring more opportunities and economic growth locally. The study finds out that concerts can be really helpful in developing tourism and promoting other industries’ growth such as transportation, dining, manufacturing and, accommodation. In the study, the data and stats for the economy aspect will be gathered and analyzed by using 2020 Hunan Satellite TV New Year’s Eve Concert and Jay Chou 2024 China Tour as examples to illustrate.
