MCD records 10% rise in ticket sales

Concert promoters MCD enjoyed “a very good result” last year as the numbers attending their events climbed by almost 10% to 1.328m.

However, although the firm says it recorded a profit last year, the Oxegen festival was a loss-maker for MCD.

New figures from trade industry journal, Pollstar rank MCD 11th in terms of ticket sales sold by promoters worldwide.
