State Farm Arena may be known as the home of the Atlanta Hawks, but according to a recent Billboard report, it is also among the most visited stadiums for live entertainment in the world.

The publication’s Year In Touring 2025 report ranks the arena fifth domestically and seventh worldwide in the Top Venues category, which includes venues with 15,001 or more capacity, excluding stadiums. The arena has had a cumulative attendance of 939,000 people across 94 live or non-basketball-related events.

State Farm also ranks second among NBA venues in total number of events, behind New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
