Will Adele Have the Biggest Concerts on Earth?

Adele's series of Munich concerts this month could break records in both attendance and sales.

And that’s before the string section, fireworks, and the logistics involved in Adele World, which includes a Ferris wheel, a biergarten, and merchandise operation the size of a large boutique. The city is an ideal place to hold a residency, given its relative proximity to Austria, Italy and Switzerland; it’s easy to get anywhere in Germany by train and anywhere in Europe by plane. (Some tickets seem to be available for less than face value on the secondary market, and a half dozen concertgoers were trying to sell extras before the first show, but the promoters apparently sold those initially.)
